An important player for Diego Pablo Simeone for the match at the Ciutat de Valencia. The coach will not be able to count on the services of the injured Thomas Lemar.
Simeone surprised by changing Lemar at half-time of the match against Real Sociedad on Sunday. It eventually transpired that the Frenchman had picked up an injury in the first half.
Lemar, the Madrid side said, is suffering from a right thigh injury. Atletico have declined to confirm the extent of the injury or the estimated time the winger will be out of action.
What is clear is that the Frenchman will not be available for Simeone's side's next game, this Thursday against Levante at the Ciutat de Valencia.
