Good afternoon and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE coverage of the La Liga fixture between Cadiz and Atletico Madrid. We'll bring you all the action as it happens. Kick off is at 17:30 GMT.

Atletico Madrid have scored two or more goals in six of their last seven away matches in La Liga. This is a team that has significant firepower in the attacking third of the pitch.

PICTURE: No early breakthrough!

Llorente has been such an important player for Atletico Madrid over the last two seasons or so, but right back isn't his favoured position even though he plays there for Spain.

Off the post! Very close to being the opener for Atletico Madrid with Llorente cutting the pass back for Griezmann whose low shot comes back off the base of the near post! The ball might have been out, though.

Cadiz have failed to win any of their last eight home matches in the league. This is one of the easier venues to visit in La Liga this season on the basis of results.

Savic might have done better with that. The ball bounced at a nice height for the Atletico Madrid centre back six yards out from goal, but he just never got over the top of the shot.

Over the bar! The Atletico Madrid corner kick causes mayhem inside the Cadiz penalty box, the ball bounced in the six-yard box, but Savic could only send his shot over the crossbar!

Carrasco had the chance to get a freekick into the box, but the delivery from the Belgian was a poor one. Nonetheless, Atletico Madrid win a corner. Let's see how Cadiz handle this.

The omens are good for Atletico Madrid this evening given that they have gone their last nine matches unbeaten against Cadiz in all competitions. They will be favourites again here.

Block is made! Carrasco was played into the penalty box, he cut inside on to his right foot, but had his shot blocked! That was a decent opportunity for Atletico Madrid.

With Trippier still missing, Llorente starts on the right side of the defence, but the Spaniard doesn’t provide Atletico Madrid with the deliveries from wide that his English teammate does.

This has been a bright start to the match by Cadiz, but Atletico Madrid are starting to have an influence. Koke plays a cross into the middle, but the delivery is cleared.

Atleti are without a number of important players for this evening’s match against Cadiz. Kieran Trippier is still missing for the Spanish champions. The Englishman is a key figure.

What sort of match will we witness this evening? The pressure is on for Atletico Madrid to keep winning to maintain their Spanish title defence. This could be a challenge for them.

An early chance! That was an opportunity for Cadiz to take the lead within just two minutes with Lozano getting in behind down the right side, but the block was made to stop the shot!

The match is under way! It's Cadiz against Atletico Madrid in this La Liga fixture!
