Welcome to our LIVE coverage of this big clash between Valencia and Atletico, perennial Champions League chasers but looking over their shoulders at the likes of Getafe and Malaga.

FACT: Valencia have only won one of their last five league meetings with Atletico.

The first half is underway at the Mestalla.

Odds: Valencia 10/11, Atletico Madrid 11/4, Draw 13/5.

Atletico boss Gregorio Manzano: "All of the international players have arrived safely. (Arda) Turan has some discomfort and trained away from his peers yesterday, while Falcao has a small blow, but ultimately they will be used tomorrow (Saturday)."

Valencia boss Unai Emery: "Atletico want the same as Valencia and that is to play in the Champions League. It means a lot to us. Valencia-Atletico Madrid are always lively games that are enjoyed by fans who have no interest in either of the two teams that are involved in the game."

For Valencia Miguel starts despite the club trying to flog him in the summer, thanks to Bruno being injured. Ruiz makes his debut in defence. For Atletico, Falcao will start after his £35m move from Porto but a host of players - Diego Godin, Pizzi, Jorge Pulido, Sergio Asenjo, Eduardo Salvio and Diego Costa - all miss out.
