Atletico Madrid

La Liga returns this weekend from the international break with leaders Barcelona visiting third placed Atletico Madrid. Barcelona travel to the Wand Metropolitana with just one point ahead of Roji Blancos which is shaping up to be one of the tightest league race in decades. At this time in the 2017-18 season, Barcelona were four points off the table and 10 points ahead of Atletico Madrid. Well this time, the story is a bit different with small guns like Alaves and Espanyol blazing

Atletico Madrid frontman, Diego Costa is suffering his longest goal drought in his career as his homecoming to the Roji Blancos has become a nightmare. Whatever one might have to say about Diego Costa's abrasive, borderline explosive character, there has seldom been doubt about his proficiency in and around the penalty area. But as his painful drought continues the question must be raised: what is going wrong for Costa? Costa made an instant impact coming back to Wanda Metropolitana at the start of 2018
