Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol Preview
Atletico Madrid
All eyes will be on the Spanish capital on Wednesday, as Atletico Madrid bid to enhance their title credentials. Atletico come into this round in excellent recent form after securing a smashing 3-0 win over Girona on Sunday. Antoine Griezmann netted in that success, while further efforts were added in the second period by Marcos Llorente and Koke.
However, their recent record in this fixture would be a concern ahead of making an Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol prediction. The Spanish side have been held to draws in each of their last matches against their rivals. However, they are also unbeaten in their last six matches against Espanyol ahead of this midweek showdown.
Espanyol
It has been a concerning start to the season for Espanyol, as they are yet to win or score in their opening two matches. Their most recent defeat was suffered at home against Real Sociedad. The Catalan side have played their last two matches on the road, and an enhanced performance will be expected this week against a talented Atletico side.
However, Espanyol have recorded more victories against Atletico than they have against any other side in La Liga. They have also won on two of their last three trips to the Atletico stadium while their most recent success was recorded in May 2023 by a 2-1 scoreline.
