Alaves – Statistics & Current Form
Although the Basques were able to hold their own under head coach Abelardo in the last two seasons, there was a split at the end of last season. Differences in opinion between coach and club management made for the split.
Since then, Asier Garitano is responsible for the Basques. Even under the new coach has not changed much in the style of play. The main focus is put on the defensive, before the goal completion is forced with fast switching play.
At home, this works well so far as desired. In the previous five home games at the Mendizorrotza Stadium, the Basques were able to collect ten counters. Goalkeeper Fernando Pacheco had to concede only one goal – in the 0-1 defeat against Sevilla FC.
In the four remaining home games, there was a goalless draw and three wins. With Levante, Mallorca and Celta Vigo, however, these victories could be retracted against teams from the back table region.
So far, the Basques have only been able to collect one point (on Matchday 3) and thus have eleven points on the credit side, which currently rank 13th in the LaLiga table. Last Friday, the team disintegrated in the closing stages and had to be beaten accordingly to 1: 4 the yellow submarine from Villarreal. There was no sign of the otherwise strong defense on Friday night.

Atletico Madrid – Statistics & Current Form
The Rojiblancos from Madrid do not have much in common with the team from the last years. However, the way in which the Madrid players play their football matches has not changed completely. A lot of passion, a clear plan and a superior defensive are the cornerstones of success. Nevertheless, Diego Simeone had to please after the 1-1 draw against Valencia criticism and whistles of their own fans.
Undoubtedly, the style of play is not necessarily attractive and for the neutral football fan quite tough food. But the success approves the funds, because with only five goals in the first ten LaLiga games also has the newly formed Atletico team by far the best defensive in the league , Only in the 0-2 against Real Sociedad de San Sebastian, the Madrid suffered a defeat. These two goals were also the only goals conceded in third place in the current season.
Saul Niguez and Alvaro Morata scored the goals in the 2-0 home win last Saturday (with Atletico conceding just one goal in the last six games) on Angel Angel’s submission.

In terms of personnel, Diego Simeone will again have to give up his new prodigy, Joao Felix. The Portuguese is suffering from a sprained ankle and, like defenders Jose Gimenez, Stefan Savic and Sime Vrsaljko, is not an issue for use in the Basque Country.
These are very serious failures, but with a look at the expected lineup and existing reservists (Diego Costa, Marcos Llorente, Hector Herrera, Santiago Arias), there is more than enough quality to do the trick.
