Diego Simeone's side made a slow start to the new campaign, drawing with Valencia and Eibar and losing to Celta Vigo.

However, they now appear to be finding some form, with back-to-back wins against Getafe and Huesca following Champions League success against Monaco.

Antoine Griezmann opened the scoring against Huesca in the first half and Thomas Partey added a second soon after as Atleti threatened to run wild.

Koke scored a third before the break but Atletico took their stars off in the second half and their foot off the peddle as they turned their attention to the weekend.
