Madrid Derby: Absences and Threats in the Champions League
Atlético de Madrid is preparing for an exciting derby against Real Madrid in the Champions League, a new chapter in their European rivalry where the Whites have historically dominated.
After defeating Athletic in a tight match, the Rojiblancos arrive at the Bernabéu with high spirits, although aware of the challenge of facing their eternal rival in their favorite competition.
Simeone, apparently, will be able to count on his gala eleven, although he regrets the injuries of Koke and Azpilicueta, two important players in the team’s rotation. Despite not being undisputed starters, their experience and versatility are always an added value for Cholo.
The Colchoneros travel without sanctions, but with a warning to Giménez and Correa, who must avoid a yellow card if they want to be present in the return match at the Metropolitano.
The fans trust in the defensive solidity and the competitive spirit of the team to obtain a favorable result in the White stronghold and keep alive the hopes of advancing in the competition. An intense and disputed match is expected, where every detail will make a difference on the road to victory. The Champions League awaits a new derby full of emotion and passion.
