Atletico Madrid are unlikely to challenge Barcelona for the top spot in La Liga but they can distance themselves further away from rivals Real Madrid if they clinch a victory over Levante.
The home side currently sit on 44 points in the table following their 2-0 victory over Real Zaragoza on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the travelling side can edge nearer to the European places in the table with a win on away turf but they head into the clash on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Real Betis.
Star striker Radamel Falcao is likely to be partnered with Diego Costa for the match this weekend, while Levante are expected to start Ruben and Michel in midfield.
