Atletico Madrid vs Real Betis probable line-ups: Felipe to return at centre-back

  /  autty

Atletico Madrid welcome Real Betis to the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday night, with Diego Simeone's side able to mathematically secure their place in next year's Champions League with a win.

For Los Verdiblancos, they know that they will not be relegated but, ahead of the Manuel Pellegrini era getting underway next season, there will be some players who will want to impress their future coach in these last few games of the season.

Atletico will be without Jose Maria Gimenez after he suffered a blow to his ankle in the 1-1 draw away at Celta in midweek, so Felipe Monteiro will return to the side at centre-back.

Simeone may opt to go for a front two of Alvaro Morata and Marcos Llorente again, with the latter playing just behind the No.9.

Betis will welcome back Sergio Canales after he served his suspension, while Loren Moron may come in for Borja Iglesias.

Atletico's probable line-up: Jan Oblak; Kieran Trippier, Stefan Savic, Felipe Monteiro, Renan Lodi; Angel Correa, Thomas Partey, Koke, Saul Niguez; Marcos Llorente, Alvaro Morata.

Betis' probable line-up: Dani Martin; Emerson, Aissa Mandi, Zou Feddal, Alfonso Pedraza; Guido Rodriguez, Andres Guardado; Sergio Canales, Nabil Fekir, Alex Moreno; Loren Moron.
