ATLETICO MADRID vs. ELCHE Live Stream FREE Online: 2014 Spanish Liga BBVA Table, Live Coverage From Madrid, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs in opposite ends of the Spanish Liga table will do battle today in a match between Atletico Madrid and Elche. The first-division clash scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET will be held at the Vicente Calderon in Madrid and can be live streamed here free.

With a pivotal UEFA Champions League semifinal clash awaiting Atletico Madrid on Tuesday, manager Diego Simeone is adamant that a razor sharp focus exists within the club. All that concerns them is a victory over Elche this afternoon (h/t to Inside Spanish Football). "Within the group, the only thing that concerns us is making the game against Elche the best it can be," Simeone said. "Nothing else shows us how we should resolve it, or which way we should play and take the game where we want it to be," he added.

"We're trying to isolate ourselves from everything else and simply focus ourselves on resolving a difficult game against an opponent who work very well tactically, is well organised, has speed down the flanks and is good from set-pieces."
