Engaged in the Champions League this autumn, Atlético Madrid managed to secure their ticket to the Round of 16 by finishing in 2nd place in their group behind Bayern Munich but ahead of Salzburg and Lokomotiv Moscow. To qualify, the Colchoneros won a decisive success last week in Austria (0-2). Despite this demanding European competition, the Madrilenians are showing very good dispositions in La Liga where they occupy the 2nd place in the standings with the same number of points as the leader and two games behind. But after winning 7 consecutive victories, the last of which was against Barça (1-0), Valencia (0-1) and Real Valladolid (2-0), Diego Simeone’s men were beaten in the Madrid derby by Real (2-0) last weekend.
Opposite, Elche occupies a correct 14th place in the standings with 14 points taken in 11 games, two less than most of its competitors. However, after having made a very encouraging start, the promoted ones have been stalling for some time since they have not won since 6 games. After having linked 4 draws against Celta Vigo (1-1), Levante (1-1), Cadiz (1-1) and Villarreal (0-0), the Franjiverdes gave in against Granada last weekend (0 -1).
