The Atlético de Madrid life is at stake before him Porto. Either all or nothing. The mattress team needs to win in ‘Do Dragao ‘ and wait to see what happens in the AC Milan-Liverpool from San Siro. And he will do it with a defense of circumstances and with the absence of real evidence with an eleven. Neither in the session on Sunday nor in the session on Monday, after the defeat against Mallorca, Diego Simeone he specifically worked with an eleven. The team that jumps onto the field of play is only in its head, although it is true that everything indicates that the cards are more or less defined.
It is true that there are some specific doubts in some positions, variations that could occur. There, there is a gap for speculation. But where there seems to be is in the case of the defensive line, because what it has Simeone It is what it is. Only three defenses could travel to Portugal, with the injuries of Trippier, Savic and Giménez, and the sanction of Felipe. This being the case, he will have to improvise, with a center behind formed by Kondogbia and Handsome. The sides will be for Llorente and Lodi. And the goal, obviously for cloud.
Atlético de Madrid coach Cholo Simeone and midfielder Marcos Llorente have passed through the press room in the preview of tomorrow’s transcendental Atletico game against Porto on Portuguese soil.
From there come the alternatives. Everything suggests that From Paul, Boil and Lemar, who was not a starter before him Mallorca, they would be in the center of the field. The other position would be for Carrasco, Joao Félix or Correa. Up front, everything suggests that they will be Griezmann and Luis Suarez. The Uruguayan was not a starter in the league this past weekend, so he will arrive more rested at the key clash.
DOUBTS IN THE PORTO
For his part, Porto He also has some doubts in the case of Pepe, who arrives after injury. Everything indicates that the central pair of the classic 4-4-2 of Sergio Conceição it will be formed by the Congolese Mbemba and the luso Fabio Cardoso, while the axis of the medullary could be assumed by the Portuguese international Sergio Oliveira, which last season was one of the highlights of the Porto, although this year the coach has relegated it to the background.
The Portuguese coach will have to choose a media pair between Oliveira, little girl -Who was the partner in the last league match of Uribe– or the Serbian Marco Grujic. The eleven could be the one formed by Diogo Costa; Fábio Cardoso, Mbemba, Zaidú, Manafá; Otávio, Sérgio Oliveira, Vitinha, Luis Díaz; Taremi and Evanilson.
