- 90'+6'Anyway, that's all from me today. I hope you enjoyed following our live text coverage. Until next time, goodbye!
- 90'+6'That's a big three points for Atletico who return to the top of the table, two points clear of Real Madrid with two games in hand. They take on Athletic Bilbao next as they look to stretch their lead at the top. For Alaves, they remain 13th and face 11th-placed Cadiz next who sit just a point above them in the table.
- 90'+6'Atletico scrape past Alaves thanks to a late goal from Suarez. The visitors went in at the break 1-0 ahead and their position was strengthened further when Laguardia was given a straight red in the 63rd minute for denying Lemar a goalscoring opportunity. However, Simeon's side failed to kill the game off and it looked like they would be made to pay when Felipe put the ball into his own net after some good build-up play from Perez and Joselu for Alaves. But Suarez would continue his good form and bail his team out at the death. Felix picked out his fellow forward with a fizzing low cross and the Uruguayan couldn't miss.
- 90'+6'FULL-TIME: DEPORTIVO ALAVES 1-2 ATLETICO MADRID
- 90'+6'They overrun the ball and Oblak can gather. However, they come again from the goal-kick and get a header on target, but it isn't enough to trouble the keeper.
- 90'+5'Back come Alaves with Battaglia. Can they create one more chance?
- 90'+5'Atletico launch the ball forward from a free-kick as they look to see the game out.
- 90'+4'After an assist and a goal, Suarez adds a yellow card after clashing with Pacheco.
- 90'+2'Rioja flashes a cross in for Alaves who find themselves behind again after doing brilliantly to get back on level terms momentarily.
- 90'It was a brilliant cross from the byline that set up Suarez for his seventh goal against Alaves.
- 90'GOAAAALLLLLL! SUAREZ PUTS ATLETICO BACK IN FRONT! It's lovely play from the visitors as Saul feeds it into the path of Felix who has made a great run. The youngster spots Suarez at the back post and gives his team-mate the simplest of tap-ins with a pinpoint delivery. 2-1 Atletico!
- 88'Marin replaces Lopez for the hosts.
- 87'Renan is on for Felipe.
- 86'Atletico attempt to restore their advantage as Llorente cuts in and fires a shot just wide but the linesman's flag was up for offside.
- 84'GOOOAAAAALLL! ALAVES ARE LEVEL! The hosts equalise thanks to some great play and a huge slice of luck. Perez made the initial break before picking out Joselu on his left who attempted to play it back to his fellow forward. Perez couldn't get on the end of it but Felipe poked it into his own net via the post to give the hosts a huge lifeline. 1-1!
- 83'Battaglia finds Lopez on the left before the hosts switch play to the other side. They're looking for a way through but are forced to go the aerial route, allowing Oblak to comfortably gather.
- 82'It's Simeone's turn to bring on a fresh face as Niguez replaces Carrasco.
- 81'SAVE! The delivery is met by Lejeune whose header looks destined for the bottom corner before Oblak springs to action and makes a great save.
- 78'Alaves have a free-kick and it's floated towards the back post but Atletico defend it well.
- 75'SAVE! Lemar strikes well but Pacheco is equal to the task, saving well to his right before the flag is up for offside on the follow-up.
- 75'It's a double change for the hosts as Perez comes on for Edgar.
- 75'Deyverson, who had looked a threat on the break, is replaced by Joselu for the final 15 minutes.
- 74'Suarez wins his side a free-kick right on the edge of the Alaves area after being pushed from behind by Lejeune.
- 72'As you would expect, Atletico are dominating proceedings here and will be keen to put the game beyond doubt.
- 70'CHANCE! Suarez is played through by Vrsaljko and the former Barcelona man pokes an effort just wide of the far post.
- 68'Next up, Garcia is replaced by Sachi.
- 68'Machin has been forced into changes and it's Sainz who makes way for Rioja.
- 67'Deyverson does well to switch the play from left to right and find Edgar. However, the Alaves midfielder is crowded out, with Atletico winning the ball back.
- 66'It'll be a case of hanging tight now for Alaves and hope to sneak an equaliser late.
- 65'We're finally back underway and Carrasco floats a free-kick into the box but Pacheco is out quickly to punch clear.
- 63'RED CARD! After initially showing Laguardia a yellow card, the referee upgrades it to red after consulting the monitor. Lemar did look clean through so it's hard to argue with the decision. The hosts have a mountain to climb now!
- 62'In among all that, Felix came on for Correa.
- 60'CHANCE! Carrasco lays the ball off brilliantly for Lemar who gets to it ahead of Laguardia before being chopped down. The referee waves play on as Carrasco gathers and heads towards goal. He has space to shoot but squares it towards Correa and allows the Alaves defence a chance to recover.
- 59'SHOT! The free-kick is floated forward before the loose ball drops for Hermasco to strike on the volley. It's an ambitious effort that doesn't trouble Oblak.
- 58'Deyverson looks to break through the Atletico midfield but is halted in his tracks by Carrasco who appeared to catch the forward in the throat.
- 56'It comes to nothing and the away side break forward. A ball in behind the Alaves defence is almost gathered by Suarez but Hermasco does well on the stretch to stifle the attack.
- 55'Garcia wins a free-kick in the Atletico half after being hauled to the ground by Llorente.
- 53'Atletico definitely look a little sharper so far in the second period. As the game gets more stretched, I expect more chances to open up.
- 51'CHANCE! Again, it's loose from Alaves. Lejeune's attempted clearance is blocked by Llorente with the loose ball falling kindly for Suarez. The Uruguayan is bearing down on goal but surprisingly attempts to cut it back instead of taking a shot on and the ball is intercepted.
- 50'Llorente breaks up the play for Atletico who then enjoy a spell of possession. Koke then tries to pick out Vrsaljko who has made a run up the right flank but the ball is fractionally overhit.
- 45'+2'The goal will give the visitors a huge boost at the break as they were struggling to break down the hosts. However, the game is far from over as, despite not registering a shot in the opening 45 minutes, Alaves did get into promising positions on occasion so will believe they can get back into it while the deficit remains one.
- 48'Laguardia defends well after Vrsaljko whips in a dangerous-looking cross.
- 45'+2'Llorente's late first-half goal is the difference between the two sides at the break. It was a game of few chances as Alaves held their shape well for the majority but they were when Suarez pounced on a loose pass into defence. The Uruguayan fed the ball into Llorente who darted forward before firing a shot that took a deflection off Laguardia and nestled into the bottom corner.
- 47'Suarez wins an early corner for the away side as they look to double their advantage. Carrasco takes but Jota does well to head clear.
- 45'+2'HALF-TIME: DEPORTIVO ALAVES 0-1 ATLETICO MADRID
- 46'Atletico get the game back underway for the second half.
- 45'+1'Pacheco and Aguirregabiria do well to thwart the attempted ball in behind to Carrasco.
- 45'There will be one minute of added time.
- 43'It's very unlucky for the hosts who had done very well to that point to keep their opponents at bay.
- 41'Suarez was typically alert to the loose ball and picks up another goal contribution against Alaves!
- 41'GOOOAAAAALLLLL! ATLETICO LEAD 1-0! It's so sloppy from the hosts who give the ball straight to Suarez from midfield. The Uruguayan feeds it into the path of Llorente whose shot takes a wicked deflection off Laguardia and finds the bottom corner. 1-0!
- 40'Atletico win the ball high up the pitch and Carrasco attempts to break into the Alaves area. He is brought down but the referee waves the claims for a foul away.
- 38'Llorente is once again penalised, this time for a foul on Aguirregabiria. You'd expect a card to be shown next time.
- 38'Lemar's attempted throughball to Carrasco is well read by Aguirregabiria who lays it off to Pacheco to punt clear.
- 36'Llorente is penalised for a late challenge on Lopez. Atletico have barely seen the ball in these last five minutes.
- 35'What appeared to be ideal conditions for a game of football have soured as the heavens have opened.
- 33'Lopez advances from left-back only to turn back. The hosts have the ball in the middle of the park but are struggling to find any way through.
- 31'Atletico will be hoping to get Suarez into the game more. The Uruguayan has an outstanding record against Alaves, scoring six and assiting six in the last seven LaLiga meetings between the two.
- 29'Carrasco is the first player to be cautioned by the referee for catching Sainz in the face with a flailing arm.
- 29'Laguardia and Lejeune, who were niggling each other at the last corner, are once again warned by the referee ahead of the delivery.
- 28'The game has settled into a rather subdued affair here. Although, just as I type that, Carrasco finds himself in a threatening position on the left and wins Atletico another corner.
- 26'Up the other end, Deyverson is in a similar mood. Hermasco's pass to Felipe is too close to the Alaves forward who gets a foot to it but can't bring it under control.
- 25'A risky backpass from Aguirregabiria just evades Suarez who was alert to the potential opportunity.
- 23'Agguiregabiria's interception smacks Carrasco in the face which forces a brief stoppage.
- 21'Carrasco has been lively on the left for Atletico. He attempts a cross but the ball has just run out of play for a goal-kick.
- 20'Deyverson nips in and steals possession after a loose pass from Lemar. However, the Atletico midfielder recovers to challenge Edgar and halt the attack.
- 19'Felipe is up at the back post to meet it but his header is blocked and out for another corner. The hosts eventually deal with the danger and move up field.
- 17'Vrsajko does brilliantly well to keep the ball in and get a cross into the box. Alaves head it clear but after recycling possession, Llorente wins Atletico the first corner of the game.
- 15'The Atletico midfield of Koke, Lemar, Llorente, Carrasco and Vrsaljko are so good on the ball. It's little wonder they've made such a strong start to the season.
- 14'Atletico almost pounce on some loose play at the back from Laguardia before the referee blows in favour of the Basque club.
- 13'Carrasco does very well to block Edgar's attempted cross without conceding a corner.
- 12'The home side break forward with Deyverson and work the ball right then left before winning a throw-in deep in the visitor's half.
- 10'Both sides will be content with their opening 10 minutes. Atletico have dominated the ball while Alaves have looked extremely organised defensively, offering little to no route through.
- 8'Atletico, who are playing in their bright yellow away kit, are camped in their opponent's half for a couple of minutes as they probe for an opening. That looks to be the way the game might play out here, with Alaves sitting back and waiting for a chance to counter.
- 6'SHOT! Atletico work the ball up the park quickly and Suarez picks out Carrasco who has made a good run up the left. The midfielder lines up a shot and draws a smart save down low from Pacheco.
- 5'Deyverson has the ball and lofts a lovely pass out wide to Edgar who skips past Hermaso before attempting to pick out a team-mate in the box. Atletico manage to scramble the ball to safety but that was an early warning sign.
- 4'A loose pass from Gimenez into midfield almost gifts Alaves the first chance of the game. However, the pass into Deyverson was overhit.
- 3'The visitors enjoy a spell of possession, spraying it around nicely before the home side recover.
- 1'In a scrappy opening exchange, Edgar almost wins the hosts an early corner before the referee signals for a goal-kick.
- 1'Referee Juan Martinez Munuera blows his whistle and Alaves get us underway.
- -Alaves have failed to win in their last 10 LaLiga games against Atletico (D4 L6), their longest current winless run against an opponent in the top-flight. They’ll be looking to put that right here. Kick-off is moments away!
- -It’s just two changes for Simeone and Atletico. Stefan Savic, who is serving a suspension after his yellow card against Getafa, is replaced by Gimenez in a back three. The midfield five remain the same but up top, Correa joins Suarez with Felix starting as a substitute.
- -Alaves coach Machin has made five changes to the side that drew with Osasuna. Aguirregabiria and Lopez replace Navarro and Duarte at right and left-back respectively. In midfield, Tomas Pina is suspended so Battaglia starts after serving a ban of his own, and Sainz is preferred ahead of Rioja who drops to the bench. Up front, Jota partners Deyverson.
- -ATLETICO MADRID SUBS: Miguel San Roman, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Sergio Camello, Lucas Torreira, Saul Niguez, Manuel Sanchez, Ricard Sanchez, Vitolo, Ivan Saponjic, Renan Lodi, Ivo Grbic, Joao Felix.
- -ATLETICO MADRID (3-5-2): Jan Oblak; Jose Gimenez, Felipe, Mario Hermaso; Sime Vrsaljko, Marcos Llorente, Koke, Thomas Lemar, Yannick Carrasco; Luis Suarez, Angel Correa.
- -DEPORTIVO ALAVES SUBS: Ximo Navarro, Ruben Duarte, Luis Rioja, Antonio Sivera, Burgui, Tomas Tavares, John Guidetti, Adrian Marin, Tachi, Joselu, Lucas Perez.
- -DEPORTIVO ALAVES (4-4-2): Fernando Pacheco; Martin Aguirregabiria, Victor Laguardia, Florian Lejeune, Javi Lopez; Edgar Mendez, Rodrigo Battaglia, Manu Garcia, Borja Sainz; Jota, Deyverson.
- -However, their opponents are flying this season. Atletico sit second in the table just one point behind city rivals Real Madrid but have three games in hand. Diego Simeone’s side beat Getafe 1-0 in their previous outing with Luis Suarez notching the only goal in what was their third win in a row. Even at this early stage, it’s beginning to look like a two-horse race for the title, so every point counts.
- -The hosts have made a solid start to their campaign and sit 13th with 18 points from 16 games. Last time out they picked up a point away to Osasuna but return home where they have only lost twice this season. Pablo Machin’s side drew in the same fixture last season so should approach this contest with a degree of confidence.
