Team News

Deportivo Alaves
Atletico
  • Alaves have no new injury concerns to report, looking to bounce back from their embarrassing 2-0 defeat to Granada last weekend.
  • Joaquin Panichelli started his first game of the season against Granada, but will probably feature from the bench this week.
  • Alex Sola could take Carlos Vicente's right-wing spot after some lacklustre performances by the January signing.
  • Marcos Llorente is suspended having picked up his fifth yellow card of the season, whilst Pablo Barrios returns to the side.
  • Mario Hermoso returned midweek against Borussia Dortmund as Atletico exited the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Prediction

  • Deportivo Alaves welcome Atletico Madrid to Basque country this weekend, with the visitors looking for their first points in the region this season. Atletico won the reverse fixture back in Madrid, but it was a notable Alaves performance - they need Samu Omorodion back to his best.
  • Alaves have now slipped into a late relegation battle, only seven points safe of the relegation zone - they have only won one game since the 3rd of February. What's more, Luis Garcia's men have failed to score in their last three games.
  • That said, Atletico Madrid let Dortmund ship four past them midweek, and could sacrifice their defensive solidarity for a desperate bid for points on the road.
