Team News

Deportivo Alaves
Atletico
  • Tomas Pina is out due to suspension after picking up a milestone booking against Alaves last time out.
  • Rodrigo Battaglia is back after his own ban and should partner Manu Garcia in the middle of the park as a result.
  • Lucas Perez is expected to get the nod over Deyverson in the front two after finding the back of the net from the penalty spot against Osasuna.
  • Stefan Savic is suspended for Atletico Madrid, so Jose Gimenez should come into Diego Simeone's back three this weekend.
  • Sime Vrsaljko will retain his place at right wing-back after Kieran Trippier's long-term suspension.
  • Thomas Lemar is expected to start in Atleti's front three alongside Luis Suarez and Joao Felix.

Prediction

  • Deportivo Alaves recorded just their second home win of the season last time out at Mendizorroza, beating Eibar 2-1.
  • After some good form at the tail end of 2020, Alaves sit in 13th place in the league table, but remain just three points away from the drop zone.
  • Atletico Madrid have won their last three league matches, conceding just one goal in the process and remain in the title race's driving seat.

  • suarez is gonna be top scorer isnt he.. bartomeu really screwed this up

  • Suárez and JOAO!!! What a clutch!

  • Suarez is the best striker in Spain, Bartomeu was an idiot letting him join for free direct rival

  • @stefanm “Fat Luis invisible again”

  • Atleti must start losing points soon, its impossible that they will win every game.... that never happens

  • @stefanm you are tactical genius. Never knew that teams lose points some time in the future

  • Disgusting refereeing and attitude from the Alavés players so far. The yellow for Carrasco was unbelivable...

  • come on alaves!!!!! atletico suck they play anti football

  • @MorrisBuck88 Hala Atletico!!, take the top spot away from the pretenders.

  • @saudes ahahahahaha

  • @MorrisBuck88 oh ffs

  • Savic is out for this game , suspended.
