Atletico Madrid striker Baptistao keen to face Rayo Vallecano

Atletico Madrid striker Leo Baptistao is looking forward to facing former club Rayo Vallecano today.

The Brazilian hopes coach Diego Simeone gives him a start.

"I feel good and I'm working well. I don't know if I will be in the starting line-up, none of us know," he said.

"It will be strange to face Rayo but I'm really hoping to play against them and I'm going to enjoy it. It will be special."
