In the 33rd round of La Liga, Atlético Madrid will host Rayo Vallecano at their home ground, the Civitas Metropolitano Stadium, on Thursday, April 24, 2025 at 21:30. The match is crucial for both teams: Atlético is fighting to maintain their podium position, while Rayo is fighting for the positions to qualify for the European Cup.
Team performance
Atletico Madrid:
Diego Simeone's side have been in a mixed bag of form in recent times. They have won two, drawn one and lost three of their last six league games. The 1-0 defeat to Las Palmas, where they conceded the decisive goal in the 93rd minute, was particularly painful.
Rayo Vallecano:
Rayo Vallecano are also going through a difficult period. They have only managed to win one of their last nine league matches, with three draws and five losses. Their most recent draw was a 1-1 draw at home against Valencia.
Important missing items
Atletico Madrid:
Atlético has no significant injured or suspended players, so Simeone can prepare for the match with almost a full squad.
Rayo Vallecano:
Rayo Vallecano is not expecting any significant absences either, so head coach Inigo Pérez can field his team in the best possible lineup.
Tactical analysis
Atletico Madrid:
Simeone is expected to use a 4-4-2 formation, with Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sorloth up front. Giuliano Simeone, Rodrigo De Paul, Pablo Barrios and Conor Gallagher provide stability and creativity in midfield. Marcos Llorente, Robin Le Normand, Clément Lenglet and Javi Galán form the back four, while Jan Oblak is in goal.
Rayo Vallecano:
Rayo is expected to play in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with attacking midfielders Jorge de Frutos, Pedro Díaz and Álvaro García supporting striker Randy Nteka. In midfield, Óscar Valentín and Unai López are responsible for defending and distributing the ball. In defence, Andrei Ratiu, Florian Lejeune, Pathe Ciss and Alfonso Espino could feature, while Dani Cárdenas is in goal.
Weather conditions
The weather in Madrid is expected to be pleasant spring weather during the match, with temperatures around 18°C and light winds. Precipitation is unlikely, so the weather will not significantly affect the game.
