Atlético de Madrid went into the international break in high spirits after winning their last three La Liga matches, recovering from a slow start and moving into second place. On September 20th, they defeated Real Madrid 2-1 in the Madrid derby with goals from Grimaldo and David; now they travel to the Mendizorroza Stadium to face the current surprise of the season, Alavés.
The recent record of Atlético-Alavés matches offers some interesting insights: Los Colchoneros haven't lost any of their last four encounters against Alavés at any venue, but they also haven't managed to win any of their last four visits to them.
Quique Sánchez Flores is the current Alavés manager and has managed, at least for the first seven matches, to deploy a solid, well-organized defense, capable of holding opponents to fewer than two goals in five games. Meanwhile, in attack, the dynamic Lucas Boyé gives them the opportunity to launch counter-attacks at any moment.

Our Alavés vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
Before the international break, Alavés managed to keep a clean sheet at San Mamés against Athletic Club, in a match where their defense cleared the ball 36 times and intercepted 16, but their attack produced a meager 0.05 goals with no shots on target.
Perhaps the most likely Atlético player to score and break down Alavés' defense on Saturday is Giuliano Simeone, the manager's son, who has recorded two goals and two assists this season.
Our prediction for Alavés vs Atlético de Madrid is: Under 2.5 goals.
