Los Colchoneros were defeated 3-0 by Espanyol away from home last weekend. Their performances are unstable. They must be more consistent and have to go game by game without looking at the opponent. Atletico are hoping home advantages can help level out the playing field. The players need the support of the fans in this time. If they will be successful in this match, they will get theirselves into a more comfortable situation. They want definitely all three points today.

The visitors are still on 20th position and scored only 26 times in 31 rounds. Xerez had a difficult start in Primera. They have actually only 23 points. Xerez’s key players must stay healthy and must play much better to stay in the league but it will be very hard task because they are 8 points behind Malaga who are on 17th place. The newcommer will face a tough opponent once again on Wednesday evening.
Convincing home victory...home win and home win with hcp. Atletico to keep a clean sheet.
