Atlético Madrid welcome Real Oviedo to the Metropolitano on Saturday, as Diego Simeone's side try to continue a run of form that has seen them win five LaLiga games in a row.
Last weekend, Atlético beat Getafe 1-0 thanks to an own goal from Domingos Duarte. They then followed that up with a big win in the UEFA Champions League, where they beat Inter Milan 2-1 after a late winner from Jose Maria Giménez.
Atlético sit fourth in LaLiga, with 28 points from their 13 games so far.
After their much-awaited promotion to LaLiga this season, Oviedo have had a struggle in the top-flight so far this season. They have only nine points from their 13 games so far. They haven't scored a goal in any of their last three games, but more worryingly, they haven't won a game in any competition since the end of August.
Given that context, it is a safe prediction to make that Atlético will fancy their chances of winning this one, as they look to continue to put some pressure on Real Madrid and Barcelona at the top of LALIGA.
