Simeone travels to Mestalla with the need to win again to forget Anfield, the hard defeats against Liverpool, especially the last one, on Wednesday. For this reason, Cholo’s plans include recovering the sensations that his team left against Betis in, surely, the rojiblancos’ best game this season. Therefore, his eleven will be like that. With two very important laps.
Because in Anfield missed Savic and Griezmann due to suspension and both will be at Mestalla. In addition, Cholo gains muscle on his bench, with the return of Kondogbia. Cholo’s idea is that João Félix is a substitute and give Correa the title, that he forms a trident with Griezmann and Suárez. De Paul has become essential. In the blackness of Anfield he was also the best.
This is the eleven with which Atlético intends to jump in the Mestalla: Oblak; Trippier, Savic, Giménez, Hermoso, Carrasco; De Paul, Koke; Correa, Suárez and Griezmann. Cillessen; Foulquier, Diakhaby, Alderete, Gayá; Soler, Guillamón, Wass; Hélder, Guedes and Marcos André, Bordalás.
