Diego Simeone\u2019s side began the season with a controlled 2-0 win at home over M\u00e1laga CF, but they dropped points in their second outing, producing a chaotic 2-2 draw with Villarreal CF despite registering a high number of shots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Heading to Seville, Atl\u00e9tico face major selection headaches because of a pile-up of injuries and suspensions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Manager Diego Simeone confirmed that star forward <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/en\/player\/julian-alvarez-266511\">Juli\u00e1n \u00c1lvarez<\/a> is out after missing several training sessions due to illness, a situation made more complicated by ongoing transfer talk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The attack is further weakened with Alexander S\u00f8rloth ruled out by a frustrating muscle problem. At the back, Atl\u00e9tico will be without key centre-back Robin Le Normand, who is suspended after receiving a red card in the recent 2-2 draw with Villarreal CF.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>As a result, Simeone must reshuffle his starting XI. Ademola Lookman is expected to shoulder the attacking burden alongside Lee Kang-in, while dependable figures Marcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios and \u00c1lex Baena are likely to take greater responsibility in midfield.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Possible Atletico Madrid starting XI:\u00a0<\/strong>Oblak; Llorente, Hancko, Pubill, Grimaldo; Barrios, Koke; Simeone, Kang-in, Baena; Lookman<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The match will kick off at 8:30pm BST on Saturday, 29th August.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/en\/team\/sevilla-28\">Sevilla<\/a> vs Atl\u00e9tico Madrid game will be shown live in the UK on Disney+.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/onefootball.com\/en\/news\/atletico-madrid-xi-vs-sevilla-predicted-lineup-and-team-news-43360962\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atl\u00e9tico Madrid head to Estadio Ram\u00f3n S\u00e1nchez-Pizju\u00e1n on Saturday for their next La Liga match&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":105,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sport"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=104"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/105"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportbulletin.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
