Team News
Atletico
Granada
- Handpicked Premier League stars Çaglar Söyüncü and César Azpilicueta will almost certainly start against Granada; a much needed injection of experience and reliability into Simeone's eleven.
- Atletico are without defenders Reinildo and José Giménez who still remain unfit following their injuries from last season.
- Since he was rumoured to join Juventus for a third spell, Alvaro Morata will now be offered a new contract by the club, and he could feature, but Depay and Griezmann have been the favoured attacking duo in pre-season.
- No sign of João Felix, as he remains isolated from the first team and has recently expressed is desire to join Barcelona, per reports.
- Granada have secured another year's loan deal for promising Real Madrid defender Jesus Vallejo, who will no doubt be an important asset to Los Carmenes' survival hopes.
- Esteemed forward Josè Callejón is fit and ready to make his return to La Liga, having featured for Real Madrid and Espanyol in the past.
- Albanian striker Myrto Uzuni will have even bigger boots to fill this season due to Jorge Molina's absence after the 41-year-old retired at the end of last season.
Atletico 3-0.Granada were shocking away from home last season even though they were crowned Segunda champions.
