Preview: Atletico Madrid vs. Cadiz

02:28 08/11/2020

The Spanish La Liga meeting between Atleti and Cadiz will take place on 07.11.2020 at 21:00. As usual for Atleti home games, the match will be played on Saturday in the Vicente Calderon. This clash involves the team presently in 4th in the table against the 5th.

Atletico Madrid possible starting lineup:
Oblak; Trippier, Savic, Gimenez, Lodi; Correa, Saul, Torreira, Koke; Felix, Suarez

Cadiz possible starting lineup:
Ledesma; Akapo, Fali, Cala, Espino; Sanchez, Jonsson, Augusto Fernandez, Alex Fernandez; Lozano, Negredo.

Atletico will again be without the services of Yannick Carrasco, Diego Costa and Sime Vrsaljko through injury, while Vitolo is a doubt for Saturday's clash at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Simeone is expected to make changes from the side that started against Lokomotiv in the Champions League, with Koke and Lucas Torreira likely to feature in the starting XI.

Joao Felix and Luis Suarez should continue as the front two in a 4-4-2 formation, while Angel Correa will be hoping to keep his spot despite pressure from Marcos Llorente.

As for Cadiz, Luismi Quezada, Jose Mari and Nano Mesa are all on the sidelines through injury, while Iza, Marcos Mauro and Alberto Perea will face late fitness tests.

Mari's injury could open the door for Augusto Fernandez to feature in midfield, but the bulk of the side that started the two-goal victory over Eibar last weekend are expected to keep their spots.

Alvaro Negredo and Anthony Lozano have formed an impressive partnership in the final third of the field, and the pair should continue in attack on Saturday night.
