Saturday afternoon is the Molinon the encounter between Sporting Gijon and Atletico Madrid at the program. Madrileños are of course favorite, but is this justified?
Gijon
Sporting Gijon last week hit a major battle in the fierce battle against relegation by triumphing 0-2 at direct competitor Leganes. Substitute Burgui crowned himself with a goal and an assist to hero of Gijon. A very important victory because now the Asturiërs have suddenly again a real chance of self-preservation. The common result is now in favor of Sporting Gijon, so Asturiërs anyway draw the longest straw as they leveled in terms of points end with Leganes. Faith is in any case all the way back to the red white and it has been worth something.
If Sporting Gijon manages to win this weekend and self Leganes lose at FC Barcelona, the men of coach Rubi be at the end of this weekend to take the safe seventeenth place. Atletico Madrid at home is obviously a difficult task, but Sporting Gijon doing it in-house usually fine against the main city dwellers. Since 2008 Sporting Gijon in their own Molinon fact not lost to Atletico Madrid. It is true that Asturiërs during that period were active while in the Segunda Division, but last season they managed to put the team and Simeone 2-1 on the knee. A similar result would now obviously very welcome. Rubi wanted to at least not yet let look at the cards and did not want to lose or Burgui will start this weekend in the base. However, after his strong incursion turn last week the coach can not really about him.
Probable lineup Sporting Gijon
Cuellar; Canella, Amorebieta, Grasmere, Lillo; Vesga, Sergio Alvarez, T; Burgui, Lacina Traore, Moi Gomez
Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid will therefore have to come from good families to have time to take on the full cost of her visit to the Molinon. But the fact is that the people of Madrid this season the right flow does not have to pack yet. Last week the red-whites seemed at home against Celta Vigo to run again on average, but at the last moment they knew a 1-2 deficit to bend in a 3-2 victory. A victory based on working and fighting, something the coach at Simeone course never lacking. Atletico Madrid must however work harder this season for each point, in previous seasons looked it all just what Streamlining.
The league title is long and wide from sight, but Atletico Madrid is still extremely shy items. Champions League qualification is at risk because the lead over Real Sociedad number five is only one meager point. Atletico Madrid will therefore again Saturday afternoon must go all out, though it remains to be seen how the team is prepared to the accelerator pedal. Next Tuesday awaits namely the confrontation with Bayer Leverkusen in the eighth finals of the Champions League. Of course, the Madrileños would also marked three points against Sporting Gijon, but they will also do everything to waste as little energy as possible. Players like Godin, Tiago, Oblak and Gaitan trained this week apart, so it is obvious that Simeone will spare them this weekend for Tuesday.
Probable lineup Atletico Madrid
Moya; Filipe Luis, Lucas Hernández, Savic, Vrsaljko; Carrasco, Gabi, Koke, Saul Torres, Griezmann
