Atletico Madrid prepares for derby against Real Madrid
Atletico Madrid faces Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu this Saturday, February 8, with the LaLiga leadership at stake. Diego Pablo Simeone has some doubts about the possible starting eleven, but the goal will be for Jan Oblak.
The defense will be formed by Jose Maria Gimenez and Clement Lenglet, with Javi Galan on the left side and Marcos Llorente or Nahuel Molina on the right. On the right side, Giuliano Simeone is a safe option, while in the engine room, De Paul will be one of the pillars.
The options to accompany De Paul are Gallagher or Lino on the left, and Koke Resurreccion or Pablo Barrios on the right. Up front, the pair of Julian Alvarez and Antoine Griezmann is undisputed. Atletico seeks to defeat Real Madrid at their own stadium, something they have not achieved since February 2016, when they won 0-1 with a goal from Griezmann.
