A strong storm hit the Iberian Peninsula and is leaving snow in a good part of the country. Mendizorroza was completely covered in snow on Saturday. The ground staff tried to clear the pitch, but the match could be postponed, according to 'AS'.

Alavés welcome Atlético on Sunday. And they are already preparing for the match... but not exactly the players.

A big snowstorm has completely covered the grass at the Mendizorroza. The ground staff are doing their best to try and leave it in the best condition.

The next few hours will mark the future of the match. 'AS' assures that Alavés v Atlético could even be postponed.

The snow that now covers the Mendizorroza could become ice, a circumstance that would complicate things even more. For now, the match is still going ahead, but everyone in Vitoria is keeping an eye on the sky.
