Simeone's choice for the Champions League

Vitolo is awaiting for the relevant medical discharge, but he should be available in theory. He has trained with the group in the last three sessions of the team, last Thursday and Friday and this Sunday, and should be available after missing three clashes because of a muscle injury suffered in the derby against Real Madrid (0-0).

Joao Felix will not be in that match. The Portuguese attacker suffered a second-degree sprain in the right ankle in the final stretch of the duel of this Saturday against Valencia and he will be out for two weeks. The first match that he will not be able to play will be this Tuesday with Leverkusen. They will be followed by Athletic, Alavés and Sevilla.

At the same time, Simeone keeps Stefan Savic out, who will miss his second consecutive match due to the muscular injury suffered in the last international break with Montenegro.

The rest of the squad will be at the disposal of the coach, and as the team prepares for the Champions League, Simeone will have to make sure his team's form in LaLiga improves too.
