New Atletico Madrid signing Luis Suarez will not start for Los Rojiblancos in their LaLiga Santander opener against Granada at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday afternoon.
Diego Simeone has opted to leave the former Barcelona striker on the bench and play with Joao Felix and Diego Costa up front.
Meanwhile, the Argentine has selected a centre-back partnership of Stefan Savic and Felipe Augusto due to the absence of Jose Maria Gimenez, who is isolating after testing positive for COVID-19.
Atletico Madrid's starting XI: Jan Oblak; Kieran Trippier, Stefan Savic, Felipe Augusto, Renan Lodi; Angel Correa, Koke, Saul Niguez, Yannick Carrasco; Diego Costa, Joao Felix.
Granada's starting XI: Rui Silva; Dimitri Foulquier, Jesus Vallejo, Domingos Duarte, Victor Diaz; Yangel Herrera, Ramon Azeez; Antonio Puertas, Luis Milla, Kenedy; Jorge Molina.
