Atletico Madrid will be looking to avoid a fourth straight La Liga defeat when they make the trip to Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes on Wednesday night to take on Granada.
A disappointing run of form has seen Atletico fall 14 points off the top of the table, while Granada occupy 15th position, having picked up 19 points from their opening 17 matches of the season.
We say: Granada 1-2 Atletico Madrid
Atletico are in desperate need of a win, and there will be huge pressure on the visitors to triumph on Wednesday. Granada will be feeling good about themselves at the moment after back-to-back home league victories, but we fancy the reigning champions to edge a tight contest here.

La Liga leaders Real Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways on Wednesday evening when they make the trip to San Mames to take on Athletic Bilbao.
Carlo Ancelotti's side are currently six points clear of second-placed Sevilla in Spain's top flight, while Athletic occupy ninth position, having picked up 24 points from their opening 18 matches of 2021-22.
We say: Athletic Bilbao 1-2 Real Madrid
Real Madrid will again be missing some important players for this match, but it is difficult to ignore their recent record against Athletic. Los Blancos have been victorious on their last two league visits to San Mames, and we are backing the league leaders to secure another huge three points here.
