Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Malaga and Atletico Madrid's Liga clash - kicking off at 9pm UK time.

Salvio makes a slightly manic dive as Weligton flies in - there's no contact with both men awarded 9 for style. Corner Atletico.

Buonanotte gives away a free-kick on Perea. Taken long.

The second half is underway!

Half-time and it's goalless. Not a great spectacle but Atletico look more solid.

Toulalan with some silky skills to bring the ball away from Gabi and Falco trying to challenge. Silver fox these days.

Malaga come again, boosted by that chance, Buonanotte inside to Isco but his low shot is gathered by Courtois.

Brilliant ball in this time and Toulalan thinks he's scored but the ball smacks into another player and back on to him and it flies away! Bodies everywhere, could have gone anywhere.

Free-kick to Malaga now, on the left, Cazorla to take...

Atletico with posssession but still scrappy - a long ball releases Rondon though but Perea and co sweep up.

Toulalan challenges Salvio, Atletico want him booked but it's not even a free-kick - a throw.

Mistake by Dimechelis but the keeper Willy comes to the rescue to claim.

The game has slipped back into the dull grind of yore, as followers of me on Twitter will know. First to make me laugh gets a retweet.

Terrible from Cazorla, high, wide and about as handsome as he is (i.e. not).

Free-kick to Malaga but a delay as Cazorla does his laces up. On the left, central a bit, 25 yards out.

Nice turn Buonanotte, inside to Cazorla who cuts inside and shoots but well over. First sign of Malaga life for a while.

Atletico have come right back into this and, roused by that effort, are going for it. Gamez goes down after a palm in the face by Salvio.

ATLETICO OFF THE BAR! Diego with a deflected shot after super play wide left by Salvio, cutting it back for the Brazilian. Welligton with the deflection.

Filipe really unlucky to be booked - well incorrectly so, as while he was close to Isco it was Diego with the foul (which was not a booking).

Juanfran with good play but the low driven ball across the box is cleared and Rondon wins a free-kick.

Atletico working their way back into this now as they put some pressure on Malaga...

Falcao and Welligton tangle in the box but no foul and the hosts clear.
