Match Time & Date:

21:30
Prediction: 0-1
Atletico Madrid
Campo de Futbol de Vallecas will host Monday’s local derby between Rayo Vallecano and Atletico Madrid. Los Vallecanos aim to build on back-to-back wins over Almeria and Granada, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Diego Simeone’s troops. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but Pathe Ciss could sneak into the starting line-up after scoring as a substitute in the last league match.
Los Rojiblancos, on the other hand, played out a boring goalless draw with Real Betis at Estadio Benito Villamarin on Matchday 2, but seeing that Rayo suit them, away win should be considered this time out. In each of their last four encounters in Vallecas Atletico Madrid emerged triumphant and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. The likes of Koke, Angel Correa, Jose Gimenez, and Reinildo Mandava are injured for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Antoine Griezmann):
Anthony Griezmann is a French forward born on 21st March 1991 in Macon, and he is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most exciting footballers at the moment. The pacey striker started showing his potential shortly after coming through Real Sociedad’s youth academy and he went on to score 46 goals in 179 league appearances for La Real. Excellent displays in Spanish la Liga saw him become a target for a number of top clubs, but he eventually choose to sign for Atletico Madrid, and that proved to be a very good decision.
Griezmann continued the rich vein of form at Vicente Calderon, scoring some important goals as los Colchoneros enjoyed domestic and European success, while also becoming a key member of the France national team.
Playing as a winger or second striker, Griezmann possesses impressive technical skills, he is a strong finisher and still finds time to work hard for his side, so no wonder he is widely regarded as one of the leading forwards on the continent. He won the U19 European Championship with France and is tipped to lead Les Bleus to glory on senior level as well.
