Atletico’s slow start to the campaign continued as they have now managed just two points from their opening two games, both against newly promoted opposition.
Euro 2016 top scorer Antoine Griezmann missed the best chance of the first-half, whilst Leganes goalkeeper Jon Serantes saved from Kevin Gameiro and Fernando Torres after the break.
“If we keep playing like this we’ll be fighting against relegation,” raged a frustrated Griezmann to BeIN Sports.
Valencia have endured an even more disastrous start to the campaign as they lost 1-0 at Basque minnows Eibar to follow-up a 4-2 thrashing at home by Las Palmas on Monday.
Pedro Leon scored the only goal of the game with Valencia missing captain Paco Alcacer ahead of his expected move to Barcelona.
Champions Barca travel to Athletic Bilbao on Sunday.
