Atletico Madrid will aim to secure their ninth straight victory across all competitions as they host Sevilla at the Wanda Metropolitano for a La Liga showdown on Sunday night.
Despite being the longest-serving manager in La Liga, Diego Simeone has faced mounting scrutiny this season. However, Atletico showcased their resilience midweek by pulling off a dramatic late comeback to defeat fourth-tier Cacereño in the Copa del Rey's second round.
Sevilla, on the other hand, head into this clash fresh from a comfortable 3-1 triumph over Olot in their Copa del Rey fixture. Goals from Gonzalo Montiel, Juanlu Sanchez, and Kelechi Iheanacho sealed their progression. Nevertheless, their league form has been inconsistent, with just one win in their last four outings as head coach Garcia Pimienta navigates a squad with limited depth.

Atletico will be missing a couple of key players due to injury. Nahuel Molina is sidelined with a hamstring issue, while Thomas Lemar remains out with a muscular problem.
Striker Alexander Sørloth struggled to make an impact in the Copa del Rey and is likely to return to the bench. This opens the door for Antoine Griezmann and Julian Alvarez to lead the line. Meanwhile, defender Clément Lenglet has been in fine form and is expected to reclaim his spot in the starting XI. Midfielders Marcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios, and Conor Gallagher, all of whom impressed off the bench against Cacereño, are also set to return to the lineup.
Sevilla team news
As for Sevilla, injuries to Tanguy Nianzou and Chidera Ejuke leave them slightly shorthanded. However, the visitors are otherwise well-equipped for their trip to Madrid.
Coach Garcia Pimienta rotated his squad significantly during their midweek cup fixture, but a more familiar lineup is anticipated on Sunday. Players like Peque Fernández, Adrià Pedrosa, Kike Salas, Isaac Romero, Jose Angel Carmona, and Dodi Lukebakio are all expected to return to the starting XI.
While Kelechi Iheanacho and Juanlu Sanchez found the back of the net against Olot, both are likely to start on the bench as Sevilla reshuffle their squad for this high-stakes encounter with Atletico.
