Luis Maximiano - Concedes one in win Maximiano conceded one goal and made two saves during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Maximiano was a big piece to a famous win as despite an early strike from Joao Felix, he held his nerve and sunk the visitors to a fourth straight loss. With Felix having a goal called back before halftime, Maximiano is a little fortunate to still have the win on his record, but a third win in his last four starts is sure to be more important. He'll now travel to Elche, which have scored the fourth-fewest goals in La Liga.

Luis Suarez - Logs assist in win Suarez provided one assist from one chance created and took two shots (one on goal) during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Suarez battled with Luis Suarez for the first time and it was this one that ended up on the right side as he set up Jorge Molina's game-winning goal. With three assists in his last two matches and seven shots taken, Suarez has been passed up by Molina as the side's top scorer but has found himself a good role as the forward on the ball. It will be interesting to see if his form holds up at Elche, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded in La Liga.

Luis Milla - Makes four tackles in win Milla made four tackles (one won) and logged four inaccurate interceptions during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Milla has logged eight tackles and 12 crosses over his last two matches. This run has given him some base value even without logging an assist, as he's also taken six set pieces in this time. Up next is a trip to Elche, which have conceded the sixth-most crosses to midfielders in La Liga.

Jorge Molina - Scores, assists in win Molina scored one goal on two shots (one on goal) and provided one assist from one chance created during Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Molina is something of a winter renaissance man as he's now scored six goals and provided two assists in the last five matches. To continue this run, even against an Atleti in poor form, shows that Molina's efforts are no joke at the moment as he's carried his team to a run of two draws and three wins in the last five matches. He'll now travel to Elche, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded in La Liga.

Darwin Machis - Bags curler in win Machis scored one goal from two shots (two on goal) in 66 minutes of Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid.

Impact Machis has found himself a nice role as a left-winger with license to cut inside and that's exactly what he did on his way to scoring a curling effort from well outside the box. He's now scored in two of his last three starts on either side of an injury and if he's in the lineup, there are rarely players on his team who can match him in production. Up next is a trip to Elche, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded in La Liga.

Jan Oblak - Concedes two more against Granada Oblak conceded two goals and made two saves during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Granada.

Impact Oblak has looked markedly awful in recent weeks and found himself beaten two more times en route to a fourth-consecutive loss. With seven goals conceded in that time, Oblak's formerly impeccable record is starting to show some rust. He'll use the winter break to refocus before a visit from Rayo Vallecano, which are tied for sixth in total shots on goal this season.

Yannick Carrasco - Creates two chances in loss Carrasco created two chances from four crosses (three accurate) in 78 minutes of Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Granada.

Impact Carrasco offered a few dangerous movements but still found his name called early for replacement and exited with time left on the clock. With four chances created in his last two starts, Carrasco has been decent, but nothing exceptional amidst Atleti's longer four-match losing streak. Up next is a visit from Rayo Vallecano.
