Atletico Madrid return to La Liga action this weekend when they host Rayo Vallecano on Saturday looking to pick up their first league win of the season.

Los Colchoneros were brilliant in the Super Cup win against Real Madrid but found things trickier in the 1-1 draw with Valencia.

Here's a look at the Spanish side's potential lineup to take on Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.

1. Goalkeeper & Defenders

Jan Oblak (GK) - One of the best goalkeepers in the world, Oblak will start here.

Juanfran (RB) - The 33-year-old has made over 300 appearances for Atletico since signing from Osasuna in 2011 and should feature on Saturday.

Stefan Savic (CB) - Changes are expected to be few and far between, but Savic is expected to get the nod over Jose Gimenez.

Diego Godin (CB) - The Uruguay international is one of Atletico's greatest ever players and his place in the starting XI is as secure as its ever been.

Lucas Hernandez (LB) - Back after serving a suspension for the first La Liga weekend of the season, the World Cup winner is likely to start with speculation still surrounding the future of Filipe Luis.

2. Midfielders

Angel Correa (RM) - Scored in Atletico's La Liga opener, so Correa should have done enough to retain his spot.

Koke (CM) - The 26-year-old was outstanding in Atletico's Super Cup win over Real Madrid and will feature in central midfield here.

Saul (CM) - The tough tackling midfielder should play alongside Spain international teammate Koke.

Thomas Lemar (LM) - Played over an hour in the 1-1 draw with Valencia and will be hoping to record his first goal or assist against Rayo Vallecano.

3. Forwards

Diego Costa (ST) - Tough and tenacious in the Super Cup, Costa's partnership with Antoine Griezmann seems to be growing stronger each week.

Antoine Griezmann (ST) - The France international assisted Correa's strike against Valencia last week but will hope to net his first La Liga goal of the season after a brilliant World Cup.
