Atletico Madrid vs Oviedo prediction
Diego Simeone came under immense pressure at the start of this season but Los Rojiblancos have been much-improved of late as they push back towards the top-of-the-table in La Liga. Atletico returned from the November international break with a slender 1-0 defeat of Getafe last weekend.
Real Oviedo gained promotion via the playoffs last season but then took the surprising decision to sack Veljko Paunovic after winning two of their opening eight games with a very tough fixture list. However, the Asturians have regressed significantly since the return of Luis Carrion and they are destined for the drop.
Oviedo took a bizarre managerial decision and are being punished for it, with Atletico expected to ease to a comfortable victory in the Spanish capital city.
