Atletico Madrid will be searching for a fourth win in a row when they play Recreativo Huelva in their next La Liga match on Sunday.

A great start to the season has seen Atletico move up to third in the league table with 30 points from 15 matches. While the club is not expected to pose any serious title challenge, fans will be hopeful that Atletico will finish in the top four of the league table come the end of the season with hopes of Champions League football for next season looking an achievable dream.

Atletico emerged victorious out of a scrappy affair against Getafe last weekend with referee Clos Gómez showing 18 cards in the match, with six of them being red card to four players and two staff members. Diego Forlan scored the only goal of the match as Atletico won the derby encounter by a margin of 1-0.

Atletico will be without top scorer Sergio Aguero and Jose Antonio Reyes after both the players were sent off in the clash against Getafe. Giorgos Seitaridis and Thiago Motta continue to remain on sidelines with injuries.

Meanwhile Recreativo Huelva are in a good form of their own, with three victories in last four matches lifting the club to 13th in the league table with 18 points from 15 matches. Víctor Munoz's side emerged comfortable victors in the 2-0 win over Levante in their last match with Javier Camuñas and Jesús Vázquez scoring the goals.

Recreativo had won this fixture 1-0 last season and with all of his key players available for selection, Munoz will be hoping for a similar result this time around.
