Atlético Madrid Preview
Atlético de Madrid will have to put the best of its squad in this decisive match for its future in the UEFA Champions League. The team coached by Diego Simeone arrives with several absences in their squad such as Sergio Reguilón, Marcos Llorente and Felipe. However, they are in good shape for the Atlético Madrid vs Bruges clash.
So far in this Champions League,“los colchoneros” have only one win and two defeats, thus occupying the last position in Group B. In their most recent international match on matchday 3, they lost 2-0 against Brugge, the same rival they are facing this week. Defensive mistakes in marking and the space given to Brugge inside Oblak’s area cost Atleti the three points.
In its domestic league, the Madrid-based team is in fourth place in La Liga with 16 points, behind FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao.
Possible Atlético Madrid lineup: Jan Oblak; Nahuel Molina, Stefan Savic, José Giménez, Reinildo Mandava, Yannick Carrasco, Koke, Axel Witsel, Thomas Lemar, Antoine Griezmann, Ángel Correa.
Brugge Preview
Like their opponents, Brugge will be missing important players: Mats Rits, Dedryck Boyata and Owen Otasowie will be absent due to injury. In their most recent Champions League match, the Belgians sealed a big win at home against Atleti.
Ferran Jutgla and Kamal Sowah were in charge of scoring, both with build up plays and from the small area, against a capital team that was left defensively troubled. This Atlético Madrid vs Brugge is a fantastic opportunity for Carl Hoefkens’ team to consolidate their qualification to the next phase, considering that they are the leaders of their group with a perfect score of 9 points.
In the Jupiler League, Brugge is third place with 22 points.
Possible Brugge lineup: Simon Mignolet; Denis Odoi, Brandon Mechele, Abakar Sylla, Bjorn Meijer, Tajon Buchanan, Hans Vanaken, Raphael Onyedika, Casper Nielsen, Ferran Jutgla, Kamal Sowah.
