Atletico Madrid didn't make many changes for this season so I don't think they will do much and what happened now is surprising but for me this is only temporary because no matter what they are a team that should be watched out for even though they won't be able to disrupt the competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona so maybe Atletico Madrid will only compete for the top 4 again like last season.
Despite Atletico Madrid having secured just one point from their two previous LaLiga matches, I can say they are still among the top three LaLiga title contenders. Because Spanish league, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atlético Madrid are consistently the top contenders in LaLiga every year. As we know, teams in football sometimes start a new season with a poor performance, but they often bounce back to their normal standard after a few games. I'm sure with a few more matches, Atlético Madrid can perform even better. They are a strong and aggressive team, and I know they have potential in even in UEFA champions league.
