The Rojiblancos travel to Gran Canaria to face UD Las Palmas in a match where the team will be aiming for their third straight league win to retain their place at the top of the La Liga table before the decisive final sprint.

In the previous match, Atleti secured a victory over Real Valladolid at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano. A double goal from Julián Alvarez, as well as goals from Sørloth and Giuliano, secured all three points in front of 56,000 spectators. (Alexander Sørloth was substituted after 59 minutes).
“Hammer time”
Las Palmas, on the other hand, comes into the game after their first win in 2025. The yellows (Amarillos) turned a 1-0 deficit into a 3-1 win away to Getafe – an important triumph that lifted the Canarian side to 18th place, just one point behind Alavés and safety.

We expect that Atletico Madrid are using Alexander Sørloth more and more in their marketing that it means manager Diego Simeone will use the Norwegian more in the future. The 29-year-old was last season number two on La Liga’s top scorer list for Villarreal, this season he is “only” in 8th place with 12 goals. More playing time would have resulted in more goals…. We’re just mentioning it!
