Atletico Madrid will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they continue their 2021-22 campaign away to Espanyol on Sunday afternoon.
Diego Simeone's side have collected seven points from their first three matches of the season to occupy fifth position in the table, while Espanyol sit 16th, having secured two points from their three games this term.
We say: Espanyol 1-2 Atletico Madrid
Espanyol are yet to find the back of the net this season, but we are tipping them to get their name on the scoresheet on Sunday afternoon. That said, Atletico will be desperate to return to winning ways and are likely to be too strong for the promoted outfit over the course of the 90 minutes.

Valencia will be looking to continue their impressive start to the 2021-22 La Liga campaign when they travel to Osasuna on Sunday afternoon.
Los Che have collected seven points from their first three matches of the season to occupy third spot in the table, while Osasuna have picked up five points from three games to sit eighth in Spain's top flight.
We say: Osasuna 1-1 Valencia
Osasuna are a team to be taken extremely seriously at this level of football, and we just cannot back Valencia with any real confidence here due to their inconsistencies. It would not be a surprise to see a home win or an away win, but we have had to settle on a low-scoring draw.

After winning consecutive games in the lead up to the recent international break, Real Sociedad will look to pick up where they left off upon their return to action on Sunday, when they travel to take on Cadiz.
The visitors have collected six points from their opening three outings to sit seventh in the La Liga table at this early stage, while their hosts go in search of their first victory, having earned two points so far.
We say: Cadiz 0-1 Real Sociedad
Cadiz have started relatively well, despite a late collapse against Osasuna, but we see them falling just short on Sunday.
While they only scored one goal in each of their last two victories, La Real boast a dangerous front line, while their strong defensive unit has got them over the line in back-to-back games, and we see a similar outcome when they travel to Cadiz.

Real Madrid will be looking to record their third La Liga victory of the season when they welcome Celta Vigo to the newly-refurbished Bernabeu on Sunday night.
Los Blancos currently sit atop the table with seven points from their first three matches, while Celta have collected just a single point from their three fixtures to sit down in 18th position.
We say: Real Madrid 2-0 Celta Vigo
Celta have found it difficult to impress in the early stages of the new season, and this weekend's contest is a tough assignment for the out-of-form side. Los Blancos should be boosted by their return to home soil, and we are expecting Ancelotti's side to collect all three points in routine fashion.
