Granada, next up in the fight for the Champions League places
Simeone's men visit Granada in the match corresponding to LaLiga matchday 21 on Monday 22 January at 9pm.
The city of Granada welcomes Atlético de Madrid on Monday 22 January at 9pm for the 21st LaLiga match of the season, refereed by Martínez Munuera, assisted by Jaime Latre from the VAR.
Our team will be playing their second game in the domestic competition this month. We arrive with the sweet hangover of reaching the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, but focused on staying in the fight for the places that will give us access to the UEFA Champions League next season.
The Andalusian side, meanwhile, will be looking for three points to get them closer to moving out of the relegation zone, as they are currently second-bottom with 11 points, 5 points from safety. Their last three home games have resulted in 1 draw (against Athletic Club), 1 defeat (against Sevilla) and 1 win (against Cádiz).
In the direct duel against Granada, the record is positive. In the 57 times we have met, 35 of them have ended in victory, 11 in defeat and 11 in a draw. The last meeting took place on the first matchday of the current LaLiga campaign, with Simeone's side winning 3-1.
