La Liga: Atlético Madrid suffered a surprising defeat at the hands of Alavés

The two-goal defeat is extremely unpleasant for Diego Simeone’s team, as their start in the new Champions League is not at all certain. On the other hand, with these three points, Alavés probably finally got rid of the fear of relegation this season.

Atlético is not doing well away from home this season, as they have lost 11 out of 23 matches with 7 wins and 5 draws, including all series. They haven’t had such a poor away record since Simeone’s reign.
