Welcome to our LIVE coverage of Atletico Madrid's tricky match away at Villarreal.

Griezmann gets a shot away at goal from a tight angle! The French forward runs into the left channel to catch a through ball, but Asenjo is alert to the quick shot and makes the stop at his near post.

Should that have been a penalty kick? Mandzukic and Griezmann exchange passes inside the penalty area, with the Frenchman going down under the challenge of Jokic. But the referee shakes his head.

Griezmann has been in excellent form for Atletico Madrid of late, and he has looked the most lively of the away side's players at El Madrigal tonight. Good bet for first scorer, I'd say.

Of course, Atletico Madrid are out of the picture in terms of the Liga title race this season. For Simeone's side it's now about securing a top three position, under pressure from Valencia and Sevilla.

Oblak has kept his position in goals for Atletico Madrid tonight. The Slovenian made the most of Miguel Angel Moya's injury and has kept his place in the starting lineup ever since.

The corner taken short, and lofted into the box by Pina - but straight at Oblak, who is in fine charge of his box at the moment.

It's all Villarreal going forwards at the moment, and they win a corner on the right now.

Villarreal win a throw-in on the right and it's launched into the box - straight at the keeper, however.

Atletico slowing the game down already, trying to take the pressure off themselves - but Villarreal having none of it, winning the ball back and raising the tempo again.

Real Madrid played earlier tonight - a routine 3-0 win over Almeria.

Early pressure from the hosts as a fine team move gets them into the box - the final shot is straight at Oblak by Joel Campbell, however.

Atletico know that a win today will give them a priceless six-point cushion over Sevilla in the race for the third Champions League spot.

KICK OFF! We're under way at El Madrigal.
