Very few sides have beaten Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid more than once, yet Espanyol boast an excellent record against Los Rojiblancos.
Los Pericos beat Atleti 1-0 in Barcelona last December, before becoming the first (and so far only) side to win a La Liga game at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.
However, Espanyol visit the Spanish capital this weekend on a dreadful run of form having lost each of their last five league games.

Preview
After a superb start to the season, Espanyol have tailed off and their current losing streak is their worse since 2009 when Mauricio Pochettino was in charge.
Their good start was founded on solid home form and on the road the Catalans have been poor, with their only away win coming at bottom side Huesca. Their visits to top seven sides Sevilla, Real Madrid, Alaves and Getafe have all ended in defeats.
Another loss looks likely against one of the strongest home sides in Europe and when backing Atletico at the Wanda Metropolitano, there are two angles that generally appeal.
