Atletico Madrid’s Lineup Against La Coruna

Atletico Madrid will face Deportivo in the Copa del Rey round of 16 on Tuesday night.

Both teams are aiming for a spot in the quarterfinals, but the difference in their current forms suggests one team has the upper hand.

Atletico Madrid is currently fourth in La Liga with 38 points from 19 games (11 wins, 5 draws, 3 losses), 11 points behind leaders Barcelona. They are looking to bounce back from a 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup semi-finals on January 9, where they controlled much of the match but failed to score.

Several key players will be absent for Atletico. Clement Lenglet is still recovering from a knee injury sustained in December. Nicolas González is out with a hamstring issue but is expected to return around January 25. Pablo Barrios, who suffered a calf injury on January 5 against Real Sociedad, will also miss this match.

Additionally, midfielder Conor Gallagher and forward Giacomo Raspadori have been dropped from the squad as they prepare for transfers to Tottenham Hotspur and Atalanta, respectively. Tottenham has outbid Aston Villa for Gallagher, while Atalanta has secured Raspadori over Roma.
