Head coach Diego Simeone and Atletico Madrid will be keen to start their La Liga season with a win when they face Malaga in matchweek 1 at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano on Wednesday, 19th August 2026. A brand new season sees a relatively straightforward contest that pits two Spanish teams with two managers who know each other pretty well tactically.

The fixture between the two sides historically has shown Atletico Madrid holding the upper hand, winning 10 times in 16 meetings. Coach Simeone will be hoping to capitalize on the home advantage and score three easy points, handing them an opportunity to set the early benchmark. Los Rojiblancos fans following the Spanish top division action can find here all the information about where to watch Atletico Madrid vs Malaga live streaming and more.

The Argentine head coach will be relying on striker Alexander Sorloth for the goals in the absence of Julian Alvarez, who remains angling for a move away from Atletico Madrid this summer despite recent media reports reiterating the club's desire to retain him. While Malaga will know the difficult task at hand, it will be a huge mistake to overlook Juan Funes and his men.

A win will temporarily see Atleti top everyone in the league standings, with rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona still to play their opening games.
