What has been Atlético and Valencia's form ahead of this game?

Atlético have won each of their last six La Liga games. Their most recent loss came in the Copa del Rey a couple of weeks ago, when Cornellá defeated them 1-0. Los Colchoneros have shown their defensive prowess in the last six games, where they have kept three clean sheets. Their last home game ended in a two-nil win over Sevilla.

Valencia will try to add more consistency to their performances after winning only one of their last six La Liga showdowns. Their last away match concluded in a 2-1 win over Real Valladolid, which should give Javi Gracia's men a good boost for the clash against the league leaders.

Atlético are top of the league even with two games in hand. Simeone's men have won fourteen of their 17 matches so far, with only two draws and a loss against Real Madrid. Los Colchoneros have returned to their usual defensive display, conceding only seven times this season. Meanwhile, their offense has amassed 33 goals, with eleven of those belonging to Luis Suárez.

Javi Gracia's men have scored 25 goals, but their defense has conceded 26 times, which is the main reason for their poor display this season.
