About the match
Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol
La Liga
Date: Sunday, November 06, 2022
Kick-off at 14:00 UK/ 15:00 CET
Venue: Metropolitano Stadium (Madrid, Spain)
Match Preview
On Sunday, Atletico Madrid will welcome Espanyol to their Estadio Wanda Metropolitano in an attempt to avenge a stunning 3-2 loss to relegation-threatened Cadiz. Los Rojiblancos are anxious to get back into the title fight, and we have no doubt that they will attack los Periquitos with all of their might. The home team should be without Koke, Lemar, and Llorente due to injury.
On the other hand, the Catalans came from behind to pull even with Mallorca on the road, but they have continued to be in danger. There is a lot of potential in betting on Diego Simeone’s squad because Espanyol are not known for being good travelers.
Here is all the information you require about the game.

Team News

While Saul is suspended for receiving too many yellow cards, Marcos Llorente, who has been dealing with a calf issue since early October, might be able to sit on the bench this weekend.
While the hosts are only going forward without fullbacks Ruben Sanchez and Adria Pedrosa due to an ongoing ailment, the visitors are not currently facing any new injury problems.
To help Los Pericos, who have only won away games once this year, Martin Braithwaite should line up alongside Joselu and Javi Puado up front.

Martinez, Akieme, Ely, Babic, Mendes, Da la Hoz, Melero, Embarba, Robertone, Baptistao, Toure

Atletico Madrid vs Espanyol Prediction
Atletico Madrid has been difficult to predict thus far in the season, but this one feels too important for Diego Simeone’s team to drop.
With the exception of one unexpected triumph, their opponents are famously bad travelers and shouldn’t present Los Colchoneros with too many difficulties as they attempt to resume their winning streak after a difficult couple of weeks.
We say: Barcelona 3-1 Almeria
