After receiving the visit of Granada 74 in the King´s Cup, Atlético de Madrid returns to League competition by visiting Riazor Stadium, a pitch that has historically been problematic for the Madrid side. These two teams have faced each other in Galician lands in La Liga on 39 occasions, with a balance of 20 Depor victories, 11 draws and 8 wins for Atleti. In these matches, Deportivo has scored 70 goals, to 41 for the visitors. Atlético de Madrid hasn´t won at Riazor since the 1995/1996 season (0-1), and lost last year 1-0.
