Atletico Madrid play host to Inter Milan at the Metropolitano on Wednesday night in the UEFA Champions League.

It’s a crucial encounter that could shape both clubs’ European ambitions, with two tactically disciplined sides set to collide.

Atletico Madrid team news

Diego Simeone’s side faces several selection headaches ahead of this important tie. First-choice goalkeeper Jan Oblak is still nursing a muscle strain suffered during the international break. Though there remains a chance he could return pending a late fitness check. Should the Slovenian fail to recover in time, Juan Musso is expected to step in for his first European appearance of the season after keeping a clean sheet against Getafe in La Liga.

Atlético will definitely be without Marcos Llorente, who picked up a thigh injury in the weekend’s 1-0 win over Getafe, depriving Simeone of one of his most dynamic players. Robin Le Normand continues his spell on the sidelines with a knee problem, further stretching the back line. There was minor concern surrounding Julián Álvarez’s fitness as well, though the Argentine forward is still anticipated to feature after he participated in training this week.

Despite these challenges, Atlético possess more than enough attacking quality to unsettle Inter’s well-drilled defence. Antoine Griezmann, who came off the bench to score twice in the 3-1 triumph over Levante, remains their main creative spark. Alexander Sorloth has been a powerful outlet up front, while the experienced Koke and promising Pablo Barrios are set to anchor the midfield.

Atletico Madrid predicted lineup

Possible Atletico Madrid starting XI: Musso; Molina, Gimenez, Hancko, Ruggeri; Simeone, Barrios, Koke, Gonzalez; Sorloth, Alvarez.

When will the match kick off?

The match will kick off at 8pm BST on Wednesday, 26th November.
