ATL vs ATH Dream11 Match Prediction | Atletico Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao | La Liga

Diego Simeone will be looking to for Atletico to fetch its first win in the league since September as they host Athletic Bilbao this weekend.

Atletico Madrid’s last three games in La Liga ended in level terms which now positions them at the fifth spot in the points table.

Whereas, Bilbao’s two defeats in the last three games makes them sit at the 8th spot in the league.

Match Details 

Date- Sunday, October 27 | Kick-Off- 12:30 AM (IST) | Venue- Metropolitano Stadium


Atletico Madrid

Stefan Savic and Sime Vrsaljko remain long term absentees for Simeone.
19-year-old Jao Felix is also out of contention due to an ankle injury.
However, Alvaro Morata, Thomas Lemar and Mario Hermoso could make a return to the team sheet.  Marcos Llorente should be another value addition in the midfield. Hermoso and Felipe are expected to be the centre-back pairing as Jose Gimenez sustained a back injury against Leverkusen.


Athletic Bilbao

For Bilbao, Yuri Berchiche and Ibai Gomez will continue to be on the sidelines due to groin injuries. Keeping them aside, Gaizka Garitano has no further injury concerns. Inaki Williams should be leading the attack, while Raul Garcia and Iker Munian provide creative support up top. Youth product, Inigo Cordodoba should continue at the flanks.


Predicted Lineups

Atletico Madrid-Oblak; Trippier, Felipe, Hermoso, Lodi; Lemar, Koke, Thomas, Saul; Costa, Morata

Athletic Bilbao- Simon; Capa, Alvarez, I Martinez, Balenziaga; Lopez, D Garcia; Cordoba, R Garcia, Muniain; Williams

Top Picks

Douglas Costa’s performances have been underwhelming for Atletico Madrid so far. However the Spanish centre-forwad could pack a punch on any given day and will have a vital role to play against Bilbao. Costa has two goals an an assist in nine league appearances this season.

For Athletic Bilbao, it’s Ander Capa has been quality in defence. Not only has Capa done the cleaning up job at the back but his ball playing mentality has fetched him three assists this season.
