Atletico Madrid are set to take on Almeria in a La Liga encounter on Sunday at the Power Horse Stadium.
Diego Simeone's men will look to bounce back from the defeat to Barcelona in their last outing when they travel to Andalusia. They have a decent away record in this campaign with 16 points from eight matches and would hope to put their best foot forward against Almeria. There are currently in the 6th spot with 27 points from 16 matches and a win will boost their chances of a top four finish.
Meanwhile, Almeria, who gained promotion by winning the Segunda Division last season, have won five, drawn two and lost nine of their 16 league matches and currently stand 14th in the table.
