Atletico Madrid hosts Lokomotiv Moscow in a rematch match from the Europa League tournament's eighth finals. The Spanish Grand Prix has largely ensured its participation in the next phase of the tournament after winning a convincing 3-0 in the first round.

Lokomotiv Moscow did not even break into Wanda Metropolitano in the first round, this loss being the first for the team in the last 12 matches in all the tournaments. Moscow "railroaders" made serious defects in defense, and it would be a real miracle if they managed to eliminate Atletico Madrid at this stage.

Atletico Madrid has suffered just one loss in the last 11 games that came from Barcelona, ​​and nine of these games managed to keep their network dry. The comfortable lead of 3-0 is welcome at this moment, as Simeone was left without the services of Kevin Gameriro and Diego Kosta. The two strikers were injured in the final round of the Primera and remained outs for an indefinite period. A knee has a serious ankle trauma, and Gamayro has a thigh problem.


Yuri SOMIN does not have serious staff problems. The specialist will not rely on the injured Wladyslaw Ignatiev, Jefferson Farfan and Ari de Silva, but defender Taras Mihalik is back in play.

The problems with Diego Simeone, apart from the ones mentioned above, are related only to the absence of the injured Stefan Savic. Jan Cloud is also rebuilt, but probably Simeone will let Axel Werner stay in this round. Kevin Gamayro, Thomas Partai, Huangran, Philippe Luis and Angel Corea received a break during the weekend, which means that many of them will get a seat in Moxva.
