Only one Oblak keeps Bernabeu starting place for Atleti compared to last season

Just one season on from their last visit to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Atletico Madrid line up this Saturday with just one player from their last eleven to have played away to Real Madrid.

Only Jan Oblak is still in the side compared to the team named in the goalless draw on October 29, 2018.

Oblak, Juanfran, Diego Godin, Jose Gimenez, Felipe Luis, Koke, Saul Niguez, Rodri, Thomas Lemar, Antoine Griezmann and Diego Costa made up the XI on that day.

After a number of players left the club, only Oblak, Gimenez, Koke, Saul, Lemar and Diego Costa are still with Los Rojiblancos.

But injuries have hit the squad, forcing Diego Simeone to make changes.

Atleti's XI this time is: Oblak, Sime Vrsaljko, Renan Lodi, Felipe, Stefan Savic, Marcos Llorente, Saul, Thomas Partey, Angel Correa, Vitolo, Alvaro Morata.
