THE PREDICTION
Newly-promoted Espanyol have started life back in La Liga in quite dull style. Back-to-back goalless draws was followed up by a slender 1-0 defeat away to fellow promoted side Real Mallorca. In that game they had Sergi Gomez sent off late in stoppage time so they will be without the centre-half for this clash against an Atletico Madrid side that could give a second debut to Antoine Griezmann following his deadline day loan move from Barcelona. The Frenchman will likely start on the bench such is the form of Angel Correa and irreplaceability of Luis Suarez. The visitors are unbeaten and it remains to be seen as to whether ‘Cholismo’ will evolve into something more attacking but, regardless of that, they will expect to come out on top in this one.
