Team News

Granada
Atletico
  • This week Granada have signed defensive midfielder Martin Hongla from Hellas Verona, and won the signature of Kamil Piatowski from Salzburg on loan.
  • Hongla, though, is at AFCON with Cameroon and will not be available.
  • Ricard Sanchez returns from his suspension and is available to play again.
  • Caglar Soyuncu returns from his suspension, though it's likely he won't play due to falling out of favour with Diego Simeone.
  • Both Antoinne Griezmann and Alvaro Morata scored in Atleti's Copa Del Rey victory against Real on Thursday evening.
  • Nahuel Molina and Samuel Lino should be the wing-back pairing.

Prediction

  • Granada host an Atletico side they have not beaten in La Liga since 2010. The visitors for Monday's game were 3-1 victors in the reverse fixture, too.
  • Although Granada will have to muster something special to come away with anything from this match, they are showing promise in La Liga. They were narrowly beaten by Betis last week and defeated Cadiz 2-0 before that to earn their second victory of the season.
  • A victory for Granada would take them within two points of Sevilla and safety; a win for Atleti can take them level on points with Barcelona and Athletic Club in fourth and third place.
