    That's it then. Thomas Lemar's late goal is enough to seal all three points for Simeone's men in a game that was certainly not one for the neutral.
  • 94'
    Full time!! Eibar 0-1 Atlético
  • 93'
    That was it!! The ball fell to Jordán on the edge of the box, but he fired his effort just wide of the left post.
  • 89'
    Finally, to the surprise of absolutely nobody watching this game, Morata receives a yellow card for dissent.
  • 88'
    Morata in a confrontation with the referee once again and appears to put his hand on the official. Have to say, Diego Costa was banned for not much more than that...
  • 86'
    Goal given!! A flowing counter attack saw Koke escape down the right, and Lemar was on hand to tuck home his low cross and almost certainly give Atlético the three points.
  • 84'
    VAR reviewing it...
  • 84'
    GOAAAAAAALLLLL!!! Just the impact Simeone was looking for as Lemar scores for Atlético.
  • 83'
    Final change for Eibar now - Charles comes on to replace Enrich, who had to limp off after a tough afternoon's work.
  • 82'
    Enrich goes down and signals to the bench that he needs to come off.
  • 81'
    Kike García finds a bit of space in the area as a cross comes in from the right, but the ball is slightly behind him and he can only head it wide of the right post.
  • 78'
    Another great save!! Godín is left unmarked from a free-kick and powers a header towards goal but the impressive Dmitrovic comes to the rescue once more and tips it over.
  • 76'
    Second change for Eibar. Pedro León comes on for Orellana.
  • 71'
    Third and final substitution for Atlético as Arias is replaced by Croatian striker Kalinic.

a Eibar
  • 69'
    Arias again on the receiving end of a tough challenge - Enrich picks up the yellow this time after a poorly timed slide tackle.
  • 63'
    Cardona trots off, replaced by Kike García.
Card

Yellow card

a Eibar
  • 62'
    Cote receives a yellow for chopping down Arias on edge of the area as the full-back looked to burst past him. Poor challenge that. Good position for a free-kick here.
  • 60'
    Vitolo makes way for Filipe Luis - the Brazilian makes his way to left-back, allowing Saúl to push forward into a more familiar midfield role.
  • 55'
    Correa makes way for French winger Thomas Lemar, who will be hoping to provide the moment of magic that this game is crying out for.
  • 53'
    What a save!! The ball falls to Koke on the left hand side, who unleashes a fierce effort from 25 yards that Dmitrovic has to be alert to tip over.
  • 49'
    Another golden chance!! Morata is slid in by Vitolo on the left hand side, but he drags his left-footed effort wide of the post. Simeone can't believe his striker has missed that.
  • 47'
    What a chance!! Jordán whips in a menacing free-kick to the back post, and Enrich somehow heads it wide from all of 8 yards.
  • 45'
    The teams are back out and we are underway once more at the Ipurua.
  • 45'
    HT: 0-0. Neither team able to make the breakthrough here in a game of few chances. Morata and Correa both missed one-on-ones for Atlético, who started brightly but faded out as Eibar ended on the front foot.
  • 45'
    What a waste. Koke lays it off to Thomas, who blazes his effort miles over the bar.
  • 44'
    Joan Jordán receives a yellow as he cynically brings Morata down during an Atlético counter. Free-kick around 30 yards out that Koke is stood over...
  • 41'
    After around four failed attempts, Morata successfully takes his frustration out by eventually bringing down Orellana. He receives a stern telling off from the ref, and is lucky to escape a booking as he insists on arguing back.
  • 40'
    Atlético struggling to get out of their own half here - Morata gives the ball away once again as they look to break forward.
  • 35'
    Enrich tries a speculative effort on the volley from outside the box, but can only drag it wide. Eibar huffing and puffing here without creating anything clear-cut.
  • 31'
    Eibar have risen into the ascendancy here and are finding space down the wings. Another corner after Godín turns a cross behind...
  • 24'
    Another foul from striker Enrich on Giménez. Quite a battle taking shape between the two here...
  • 22'
    It seems Giménez is struggling with a muscular problem. He plays on for now, but Simeone has sent Filipe Luis to warm up on the touchline.
  • 16'
    Morata and Simeone are particularly unhappy that a penalty wasn't awarded there. In truth, Morata was too slow after an excellent through ball from Thomas and the referee got that one right.
  • 16'
    Another chance for Atlético!! Morata is put through this time but Sergio Álvarez races back and makes a timely tackle just as the Spaniard was looking to shoot.
  • 10'
    Another corner for Atlético - Eibar have started on the front foot but are leaving lots of space on the counter for the Madrid outfit.
  • 8'
    Correa is slid through but Dmitrovic closes down the angle and saves smartly from the Argentinian.
  • 4'
    Cote goes down in the area surrounded by Thomas, Correa and and Arias but nothing doing for the referee.
  • 1'
    Woah! Eibar almost take the lead after 20 seconds as Cardona drags one just wide of Oblak's far post.

    The teams are out, and we are ready to get underway...
  • PRVW
    Having conceded just 21 goals this season, Atlético Madrid have the best defensive record in the league. They will be hoping to keep another clean sheet today against a side that has won just 1 of their last 5 league games.
  • PRVW
    The home side name an unchanged lineup from last week's away draw at Real Sociedad, and will hope to continue their strong home form which has seen them pick up 29 of their 40 points at the Ipurua.
  • PRVW
    Eibar sit a comfortable 8 points above the relegation zone with six games to go, and can mathematically secure safety with a win here today - although it must be said there seems little chance of them facing the drop this season.
  • PRVW
    Atlético will also have to do without top scorer Antoine Griezmann, who is suspended after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season against Celta. On-loan Chelsea forward Álvaro Morata will look to fill his void as he starts up front.
  • PRVW
    Simeone's side make 6 changes from last week's 2-0 home win against Celta Vigo. A more familiar looking centre-back partnership sees the two Uruguayans Diego Godín and Jose Giménez joined in defence by Santiago Arias and midfielder Saúl.
  • PRVW
    Not a whole lot in play for either team in this Saturday's afternoon clash in Northern Spain. Atlético lie 2nd in the La Liga table, 9 points behind leaders Barcelona and 4 ahead of bitter rivals Real Madrid. They will be looking to delay the seemingly inevitable confirmation of Barça as champions while cementing 2nd place for themselves.
  • PRVW
    Atlético Lineup: Oblak, Arias, Giménez, Godín, Saúl; Rodrigo, Koke, Thomas, Vitolo, Morata y Correa
  • PRVW
    Eibar Lineup: Dmitrovic; De Blasis, Paulo Oliveira, Sergio Álvarez, Cote; Orellana, Jordán, Escalante, Cucurella; Sergi Enrich and Cardona.
  • PRVW
    The teams are in - let's see who's starting for each team.
