Atlético seeks ninth consecutive win against Sevilla
Atlético de Madrid hosts Sevilla at the Metropolitano with the aim of achieving their ninth consecutive win, something they have not achieved since December 2015. The team led by Diego Simeone has been unstoppable in recent weeks, with eleven goals for and none against in their last two games.
The return of Antoine Griezmann and the base of the team that crushed in Prague and Valladolid are the main assets of the red and white team. However, they may lose Giménez due to injury, and the doubt is in the midfield, where Koke could enter for De Paul.
Sevilla, for its part, arrives improved in recent weeks and has the canterano Saúl, who will be received with affection by the Metropolitano. The Andalusian team, which is in no man’s land in the standings, does not seem to be the most suitable field to take a step forward, but there is ambition.
The Norwegian Orjan Nyland returns to the goal after an injury, but Álvaro Fernández has fulfilled in his place. Despite the intense cold expected in Madrid for this Sunday, a warm atmosphere is expected at the Metropolitano, which wants to see the ninth consecutive victory of its team and give a loving welcome to Saúl.
