The Rayo Vallecano team will challenge the Atletico team in a Matchday 3 Spanish La Liga in de Vallecas Stadium, Madrid on Monday, August 28, 2023. For streaming coverage of Rayo Vallecano vs Atletico, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Atletico will host Vallecano at Wanda Metropolitano on Monday, 28 August 2023, in the continuation of La Liga. This match will be a test for Vallecano who is currently at the top of the table after starting the season very well. However, facing Atletico, who are one of the strongest teams in Spain and Europe, will not be easy for them.
Diego Simeone’s team, Atletico has always been a candidate for the La Liga title every season. They have a strong and diverse squad and an incredible fighting spirit. Their recent performance also shows their stability, being unbeaten in the last 6 matches, including 3 wins. They also managed a 2-1 win over Barcelona at Camp Nou last week, showing their class as a top team.
On the other hand, this promoted team has been impressive and quite tough at the start of this season. They managed to win 4 of their first 5 matches, including a 3-1 win over Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. They are currently in third place in the standings with 12 points, only one point away from Atletico Madrid who are in second place. They also have a sharp attack line, scoring 11 goals so far.
Talking about the history of meetings, Atletico have a very good record in meetings with Vallecano. In the last 8 meetings, Atletico have almost always won with 7 wins. Atletico’s only loss to Vallecano came back in 2019, when they lost 0-1 at home. Since then, however, Atletico have taken revenge by winning 4 in a row over Vallecano, including a 5-0 win last season.
Seeing the current performance and conditions of the two teams, Atletico is expected to win over Vallecano in this match. They have an advantage in terms of player quality, experience and mentality. They are also in good shape after the win over Barcelona last week.
Meanwhile, although Vallecano has high spirits and an effective attack, facing a tough and disciplined Atletico makes it difficult for them to break through Atletico’s solid defense and face pressure from Atletico’s dangerous attack line. They also haven’t won at the Wanda Metropolitano since the stadium opened in 2017.
