---------------------------------
Atletico Madrid
Angel Correa, Rodrigo De Paul, and Samuel Lino are all back in the mix. Since Atletico Madrid have not reported any fresh injury concerns, they will most likely have a fully-fit squad for this fixture against Rayo Vallecano.
Diego Simeone is expected to stick with his preferred 4-4-2 formation, but he is likely to make a few changes to the XI that started in the defeat to Las Palmas. Jan Oblak will be in goal for the home team, while Marcos Llorente and Javi Galan will be the full-backs. In the heart of the defence, Jose Gimenez will start alongside Robin Le Normand.
Giuliano Simeone and Conor Gallagher will feature on the flanks in midfield, while Rodrigo De Paul could come in to partner with Pablo Barrios in the centre of the park. Antoine Griezmann will return to the starting XI and start alongside Julian lvarez in the final third.
Rayo Vallecano
The visitors will be without the services of Abdul Mumin and Jonathan Montiel. Meanwhile, Sergio Camello is closing in on a return, but this fixture might have come a touch too early for him.
Inigo Perez is unlikely to make too many changes to the XI that started in their last outing and he will stick to the 4-2-3-1 formation. Augusto Batalla should continue in goal for Rayo. The back four should be made up of Andrei Rațiu, Florian Lejeune, Pathe Ciss and Pep Chavarría.
They will look to keep things tight at the back and will receive significant support from Óscar Valentín and Unai López who will form the double pivot in midfield. Pedro Díaz will feature as the number ten for the away team, while Jorge de Frutos and Álvaro García will provide the much-needed width to their attacks. Finally, Randy Nteka will lead the line for Rayo for Vallecano on Bologna.
Atletico Madrid possible starting lineup:
Oblak; Llorente, Gimenez, Le Normand, Galan; Simeone, De Paul, Barrios, Gallagher; Alvarez, Griezmann
Rayo Vallecano possible starting lineup:
Batalla; Ratiu, Lejeune, Ciss, Chavarria; Valentin, Lopez; De Frutos, Diaz, Garcia; Nteka

One of those draws came in their most recent clash in September 2024 when the spoils were shared in a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture.

Prediction: Atletico Madrid 2-1 Rayo Vallecano
Atletico may be experiencing a frustrating run of form, but they tend to save their best performances for home matches, and we believe that they will do enough to edge out a Rayo side that have lost three of their previous four La Liga away games.
