Atletico Madrid will be looking to make it three La Liga wins on the spin when relegation-battlers Cadiz visits the Civitas Metropolitano in Sunday night action.
The Rojiblancos have bounced back well since their 3-0 defeat at Valencia last month, and have followed up an inspiring 3-1 win over Real Madrid in the Madrid Derby with a gritty and hard-fought 2-0 victory against Osasuna on Thursday.
As a result, Diego Simeone's side currently sit fifth in the table, boasting 13 points from their opening six matches. Ninth-place Cadiz, meanwhile, have struggled for wins since recording an impressive 3-1 win over Villarreal to kick off September.
Goals have dried up for the Andalusian outfit lately, with just one goal in the past three games. Still, Sergio’s troops have held out for draws against Real Betis and Rayo Vallecano in their past two league games.

Team news & squads
Atletico Madrid team news
Atletico's midweek win against Osasuna was made all the more impressive given the fact they were missing as many as eight first-team players. Although Alvaro Morata will be out for this one after picking up two yellows on Thursday, head coach Diego Simeone can now call upon the services of Rodrigo de Paul and Ángel Correa as both players appear to have recovered from recent injuries.
Correa, who was initially expected to miss multiple games with a ligament sprain in his right knee, is now in line to start alongside talisman Antoine Griezmann upfront following a quick recovery. Rodrigo Riquelme could get the nod in midfield, having scored from the bench midweek.
