📋 Team News: Club Brugge

Out of a mainly full-strength group of players, there is only the sole fitness issue for the Club Brugge manager Ivan Leko to be concerned with. Dani van den Heuvel (Leg injury) won’t be playing here. Raphael Onyedika cannot play in this game through suspension.

From our viewpoint, Blauw-Zwart seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting the game with Simon Mignolet, Kyriani Sabbe, Joel Ordonez, Brandon Mechele, Joaquin Seys, Aleksandar Stankovic, Hugo Vetlesen, Christos Tzolis, Hans Vanaken, Mamadou Diakhon and Nicolo Tresoldi.

⚡ Prediction

Club Brugge will surely find it tough to be putting goals past a Atlético Madrid side who have the capability to do really well if they play to their full potential.

We’re therefore predicting a convincing 3-0 margin for Atlético Madrid at full-time.
