Team News

Osasuna
Atletico
  • Moi Gomez should slot into right wing as he was omitted from the starting lineup that drew with Sevilla this past weekend.
  • Lucas Torro could keep his place in the centre of the park following an impressive performance on Sunday.
  • Unai Garcia is a fresh doubt for this one.
  • Axel Witsel could replace Koke in midfield as the club captain is still being coaxed back from injury.
  • Jose Maria Gimenez looks fully fit again and will nestle into the heart of defence for the foreseeable now.
  • Atleti cannot rotate their squad too much due to fantastic form and a lengthy injury list, but a youth player could get an opportunity off the bench.

Prediction

  • Whilst Osasuna have not won in their last four games at home, they have not beaten Atletico in La Liga since 2009.
  • Since Atleti's fantastic victory in the Madrid derby last Sunday, Alvaro Morata overtakes Jude Bellingham to become the competitions top scorer (5 goals).
  • Osasuna are showing signs of a slightly stretched squad, and maybe failing to qualify for the Conference League was a blessing in disguise, but the visitors should win comfortably on Thursday...
