Atletico Madrid are set for back-to-back Madrid derbies as they make moves to stabilize a shaky start to their season. The first of the two league outings is a home match against Rayo Vallecano, with both sides looking to rise into the top half. We have a prediction for the match below.
Atletico will be at home seeking to recover from their late concession that earned Mallorca a 1-1 draw. This result left Atletico still on one win after six competitive matches in the season.
Diego Simeone’s side has only managed to beat Villarreal this season. Three draws in their opening five league matches isn’t a good enough return. However, a 10-game unbeaten run against this opponent gives them hope.
Rayo’s best attempts against Atletico yielded two draws in their last 10 matches. They will hope to do better this time. The visitors opened their season with a win, beating Girona 3-1.
They haven't been able to add a win in the four matches that have come afterwards. That mission will be even tougher against Atletico, who are warming up for a game against Real Madrid.
Ahead of this game, Rayo had to rise from a goal down to draw Celta Vigo 1-1. It has been 12 years since Rayo last won this fixture, and it doesn’t feel like a derby anymore.
