Yeah no matter what Simeone's system has worked for Atletico Madrid for many years. I also don't like to watch it though. It has been a really long journey with Simeone so far and it doesn't look like he is leaving anytime soon either. I assume Atletico Madrid board are quite contented with him now as they have extended his contract to 2027. 
Maybe they aren't doing well in the La Liga this season. However they are really impressive in the Champions League and quite likely to reach the semi finals soon as well. They can even play a finale there this year as I see them strong enough to eliminate either PSG or Barcelona. I know Barcelona have been superior to them in the La Liga this season but things can change in the Champions League.

Basically in La Liga for them this normal state of affairs, perhaps only with the exception that they do not have to fight for a place in the Champions League, but it is not so often that teams like Girona appear that rise above Atletico.
For Atletico today, victory is more important, so I think that Girona is unlikely to win today, especially since there are losses, Tsigankov will miss the game due to injury, and even in case of defeat, Girona will be 4 points ahead of Atlеtico in the table, which is very acceptable, but for Atlеtico a draw is not the best result, because Bilbao can beat them on goal difference, they will play with Villarreal, also a difficult opponent.
