Atletico Madrid vs Lille predicted Lineups, team news

Atletico head coach Diego Simeone will once again be without three key players due to injury: Robin Le Normand (Head), Cesar Azpilicueta (calf) and Marcos Llorente. Llorente, who has been sidelined since suffering a thigh injury against Benfica, has only recently resumed training but is not yet fit to play.

Atletico Madrid relies heavily on this Antoine Griezmann both for his scoring chances and his playing skills in attack. The big summer arrival of Julian Alvarez provides fresh energy and dynamic attacking abilities that should give your offense an additional boost.

In midfield, Koke And Conor Gallagher play a crucial role in maintaining possession of the ball and connecting defense and attack. In the meantime, Jan Oblak remains a rock in the goal and provides the much-needed stability. On the defensive side, the veterans Axel Witsel And Jose Gimenez are at the heart of Simeone’s plan, using their experience and physicality to strengthen the defence.

Atletico predicted XI (3-5-2, right to left): Oblak (TW) – Gimenez, Witsel, Lenglet, – Molina, Gallagher, Koke, Barrios, Galan – Griezmann, Alvarez.

Injured: Le Normand, Azpilicueta, Llorente

The visitors will be missing several key players due to injury, including Tiago Santos (ACL), Ismaily (Knee), Hakon Arnar Haraldsson (foot) and Ethan Mbappe (Thigh). Young midfielder though Ngal’ayel Mukau came on as a late substitute against Monaco, returning after being sidelined since the beginning of September. Benjamin André is available again after serving a suspension.

Jonathan David was Lille’s standout player this season. He scored eight goals in twelve league games, demonstrating his talent for putting the ball in the net. The goalkeeper is just as important Lucas Chevalierwhose excellent shot-blocking skills help keep Lille’s defense stable.

In midfield, André Gomes brings creativity while Thomas Meunier ensures defensive stability. Like rising stars Ayyoub Bouaddi And Edon Zhegrova Add both balance and unpredictability to Lille’s attack.

Lille Predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Chevlier (GK) – Diakite, Alexsandro, Gudmundson – Meunier, Gomes, Andre, Bakker – Cabella, Zhegrova – David.
