Atletico Madrid vs Las Palmas: Atletico Madrid ended its slump just in time for the knockout stages of the Champions League. Atletico routed Las Palmas 5-0 in the Spanish league on Saturday to end a three-game winless streak ahead of its match at Inter Milan in the first leg of the round of 16 in the Champions League. Marcos Llorente and Angel Correa scored two goals each and Memphis Depay added another at the Metropolitano Stadium.

The victory moved Diego Simeone`s team up to third in the standings, tied on points with fourth-place Barcelona, which plays at Celta Vigo later Saturday. Atletico and Barcelona are 10 points behind league leader Real Madrid, which visits Rayo Vallecano on Sunday. Madrid has a five-point lead over second-place Girona, which travels to Athletic Bilbao on Monday.
