Atletico Madrid return to Spanish league action on Sunday afternoon when they take on struggling Mallorca.
Diego Simeone's men come into this weekend's La Liga contest after a hard-fought Champions League draw in Istanbul against Galatasaray, while Mallorca arrive in Spain's capital after a much-needed win against Athletic Club last weekend.
The home side have enjoyed the better of recent encounters, and given the visitors poor road record, should be confident of claiming maximum points at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano.

Atletico Madrid team overview
Atletico Madrid come into Sunday's La Liga contest after picking up a Champions League point on the road against Galatasaray on Wednesday. Despite taking an early lead in Istanbul, Diego Simeone's side were forced to settle for a 1:1 draw at Rams Park.
Los Colcherones have built up a decent run in recent weeks, securing six wins while losing just one of their last nine fixtures across all competitions. Unbeaten in their last four La Liga games, Atletico sit fourth in the division, eight points behind league leaders Barcelona.
In possession of a superb home record, Simeone's side dropped just two points from ten home La Liga matches this season (W9, D1).
Head coach Simeone has a strong squad available this weekend. French defender Clement Lenglet is the only confirmed absentee for the home side.

Mallorca team overview
Mallorca arrive in Madrid with spirits raised from a hugely important 3:2 win against Athletic Club last weekend. A sensational hat-trick from Bosnian forward Vedat Muriqi secured only a fifth league win of the season for the Islanders.
Jagoba Arrasate's side now find themselves outside of the relegation zone, but only two points ahead of 18th placed Alaves.
On the road, Mallorca have struggled this season. Los Bermellones lost seven and won only one of ten away fixtures since August.
Head coach Arrasate has just one reported injury issue this weekend. Manu Morlanes faces a late fitness test.
