Goal Scorer:
Atletico Madrid
The home team could have a huge boost as star man Antoine Griezmann and Jose Gimenez are both expected to be back in the squad for this fixture. But, they will be without the services of Thomas Lemar, Cesar Azpilicueta, and Vitolo.
Simeone will stick to the 3-5-2 formation, where Jan Oblak will be in goal. Even if Gimenez is back fit, they might not risk him from the star. As a result, they could go ahead with a back three of Stefan Savic, Axel Witsel, and Mario Hermoso.
Nahuel Molina and Samuel Lino will be the wing-backs for the home team. The duo will look to help out the back three and ensure they do not concede another. In the centre of the park, they will have Saul Niguez start alongside Rodrigo De Paul and Koke. The trio will look to control the tempo and have the majority of the ball possession.
In attack, Memphis Depay will feature alongside Alvaro Morata. If Griezmann is 100%, he will start but if not, the French World Cup winner will surely make an appearance off the bench as his team looks to come from a goal behind.
Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Oblak; Savic, Witsel, Hermoso; Molina, Saul, De Paul, Koke, Lino; Depay, Morata
Inter Milan
The visitors will be without the services of their first-leg hero Marko Arnautovic as he misses out with a hamstring injury. He joins Carlos Augusto, Juan Cuadrado, and Stefan Sensi on the sidelines.
Inter Milan will also line up in a 3-5-2 formation, where Yann Sommer will be in goal. He will have a reliable back three of Benjamin Pavard, Stefan de Vrij and Alessandro Bastoni ahead of him. The trio will look for a clean sheet, and they will have the support of their wing-backs Matteo Darmian and Federico Dimarco as they look to keep it tight at the back.
Hakan Calhanoglu will be the defensive midfielder, who will sit in front of the back three. He will have the support of Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Nicolo Barella in the centre of the park. The trio will look to ensure they control the tempo of this fixture. In attack, star forward Lautaro Martinez should pair up with Marcus Thuram.
Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Sommer; Pavard, de Vrij, Bastoni; Darmian, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Thuram, Martinez
Prediction: Atletico Madrid 1-2 Inter Milan
