Atletico Madrid
Kieran Trippier sustained a knock recently for Atletico and should be making way for Santiago Arias at the right-back spot. Jose Gimenez is struggling with injury as well, which means Stefan Savic should continue in central defence. Saul and Angel Correa are likely to feature out wide for the hosts.
Leganes
Ruben Perez is undergoing suspension for the visitors, which should give way to Recio and Roque Mesa to start in central midfield. Unai Bustinza is expected to feature as the wing-back. Guido Carrillo should be leading the line of attack now that Youssef En-Nesyri has parted ways to Sevilla.
