'Los Rojiblancos' take on Marseille in the Europa League final on Wednesday night, both hoping to dispel previous failures in the continental competition.
For Atletico to win, Griezmann will be their key player after scoring 27 goals in 46 games this season.
However, the Frenchman has positive memories of the Stade de Lyon, tonight's stage, during his time at Real Sociedad and will hoping for a repeat.
The La Liga outfit travelled to Lyon in the first leg of their play-off clash for a place in the Champions League and were considered the underdogs.
But in the 17th minute, Griezmann broke the deadlock for Sociedad with a spectacular bicycle kick which left the stadium stunned.
Their lead was then doubled by Haris Seferovic in the second-half to secure Sociedad's place in Europe's premier club competition with a 2-0 victory.
