So I think Atletico Madrid will find it quite easy to return to the top 4.
Because Bilbao also has the chance to lose in the next match against Real Madrid. And that's when we will see Atletico Madrid return to 4th place.
If they lose points, it will be harder for them to return to top four. Girona are still in top four and they only have La Liga to focus on so at least they are not at high risk to end this season out of top four like Atletico Madrid.
Maybe without me explaining, everyone knows that Bilbao's performance has been slightly better than Girona recently, so if Bilbao can shift Girona's ranking, it will definitely drop to 4th position and that's when Atletico Madrid could have the opportunity to catch up on the points difference from Girona.
I know that Atletico Madrid has to focus on the Champions League, but we have to remember that Atletico Madrid is also a popular club with experience in having many ways to achieve something that has been planned.
Looking at Atletico Madrid's current achievements, it is indeed very bad, such as having unimpressive results from the last 5 matches, but Diego Simeone seems to be more concerned with the Champions League match, which is currently lucky to be able to qualify for the last 8 and also Diego Simeone doesn't seem to want to chase something that is impossible in Laliga so it is possible that Atletico Madrid in the Laliga match will be inconsistent because the main players will not perform optimally and actually it looks bad or better. Diego Simeone gave a strategy to always get at least 1 point a draw is already very good.
