Atletico Madrid-Espanyol is a match from the 13th day of the Spanish La Liga: where to watch it, the probable formations and the prediction.
ATLETICO MADRID – ESPANYOL | Sunday 2pm
The end of an era? Probably, as there is an immediate revolution in Atletico Madrid next January, when many players could leave as the club seems to be forced to sell someone in order to make money. The elimination from the Champions League and also from the Europa League has put Simeone’s back against the wall, and from now on he will have to do everything he can to try to somehow approach Barcelona and Real Madrid, who lead the league. The calendar gives the Colchoneros an easy task, one that can put half a smile on the Argentine’s team’s face. They come up against Espanyol, who haven’t lost in two games, but should be no problem.
Of course, it is not that Atletico have given guarantees this year. But now the head is and will be in the future only at the championship. On the pitch, therefore, the best always go and it is certainly easy to imagine how Simeon’s team will approach the match against the Catalans. In short, for all that, there is no doubt who will win this match.

The Prediction
A match that will see Atletico Madrid win and a challenge that could even break the deadlock in the first half. Madrid’s side have no chance: they must take home the full amount at stake against a team that honestly shouldn’t create any problems or headaches.
