Atletico Madrid vs FC Barcelona : Starting Lineups

Atletico Madrid and FC Barcelona play each other in a Spanish La Liga fixture as the teams look to take the lead in the table early.

Starting Lineups:

Atletico Madrid:

With midfielder Tiago doubtful, Diego Simeone might not risk the Portugese International for this match with long way to go in the season. But the player will need to go through fitness test if he is to play. Jackson Martinez and Antoinne Griezman are expected to lead the attack.

With League’s first choice goalkeeper Claudio Bravo injured, Marc Andre Ter Stegen could come in to replace the shot stopper. Javier Mascherano and Thomas Vermaelen will lead the backline in absence of suspended Pique. Attacking trio of Messi, Neymar and Suarez will take the goalscoring burden.
