Celta have not beaten Atlético at home in the league since 2007

The Celta Vigo visit this day to Atlético de Madrid, who has not beaten at home in LaLiga since 2007, although last season he started a goalless draw against the team led by Diego Pablo Simeone at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium.

With this result he broke a streak of four consecutive defeats in Madrid, in which he conceded a total of ten goals and only scored two in the 2016-17 season, when he was defeated 3-2 with goals from Fernando Torres, Carrasco and Griezmann for the rojiblancos.

On matchday 32 of the 2018-19 championship, the goals of the French international, today in the ranks of Barça, and Alvaro Morato gave the victory to Simeone's team, which a year before had already beaten Celta with goals from Griezmann, Vitolo and Ángel Correa.

That streak of four rojiblancos wins began on May 14, 2016, when Atlético, with goals from Fernando Torres and again from Griezmann, took revenge for the elimination of the cup against Celta, who for three months had surprised their next rival in the quarterfinals (0-0 at Balaídos, 2-3 at Vicente Calderón).

Celta's last away win in LaLiga against Atlético took place on the penultimate day of the 2006-07 season, thanks to a brace from the Brazilian forward Fernando Baiano and another from Iago that made the two goals of Maxi Rodriguez for the Madrid team.
