Alex Baena - Picks up suspension Baena is suspended for one match due to yellow card accumulation.

Impact Baena is heading to the sidelines for one of the final three matches this season, set to miss out against Osasuna on Tuesday due to suspension. He did start the last match, but has been more of a rotational player for the club, with Rodrigo Mendoza or Obed Vargas as viable options due to the injuries in the midfield.

Jose Maria Gimenez - Taken off after 20 minutes Gimenez was forced off the field in the 20th minute of Saturday's match against Celta Vigo due to an injury.

Impact Gimenez would leave the field just ahead of the half-hour mark Saturday, suffering from an injury that was too much to play through. With only a few games left in the season, this is something to watch, as a muscle injury could keep him out for the rest of the season. He was replaced by Robin Le Normand, who would likely continue in that spot if Gimenez remains out.

Giuliano Simeone - Not training, ruled out Saturday Simeone (undisclosed) did not train Friday and is ruled out of Saturday's clash against Celta Vigo, according to Pascual Ruiz Arnal of Marca.

Impact Simeone had featured in the Champions League second leg against Arsenal on Tuesday but has been unable to train ahead of the weekend fixture, suggesting the knock he had been managing caught up with him after the European exertion. Atletico will be without the young winger for the Celta clash, with Nahuel Molina expected to start in his spot.

Julian Alvarez - Won't be available Saturday Alvarez (ankle) will miss Saturday's clash against Celta Vigo after reaggravating his ankle during Tuesday's Champions League semifinal second leg against Arsenal, with his return...

Impact Alvarez had played 66 minutes at the Emirates with the aid of an infiltration before the ankle gave way, and the toll of that effort has ruled him out of the immediate fixtures. With the World Cup looming in just over a month, Atletico will be in no rush to push the Argentine striker back before he is fully right, making Alexander Sorloth the likely option to lead the line against the Celeste while Alvarez works through his recovery.

Jan Oblak - One save in loss Oblak had one save and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat against Arsenal.

Impact Oblak faced only two shots during Tuesday's loss and stopped one of them. The goalkeeper wasn't overly troubled throughout Tuesday's match, but failed to stop the deciding goal that ended the tie. Oblak is an elite option behind a stout defensive team, but just couldn't do quite enough to earn a spot in the Champions League final.

Giuliano Simeone - Two shots in return Simeone generated two shots (zero on goal) in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Arsenal.

Impact Simeone returned to the pitch Tuesday and took a pair of shots, but failed to put a single on target. The midfielder really just couldn't get involved in the attack during his time on the pitch and was left with a disappointing showing during the loss. He and the club now turn their attention solely to domestic action to close out the campaign.

Marcos Llorente - Single shot in loss Llorente had one shot (one on goal) and four crosses (one accurate) in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat versus Arsenal.

Impact Llorente put a shot on goal and sent in four crosses during Tuesday's clash, but it just wasn't enough. A one-goal loss saw Llorente and Atleti eliminated from the Champions League. It was a decent showing from the midfielder, but he just couldn't manage to break down the elite Arsenal defense.

Julian Alvarez - Plays 66 minutes with infiltration Alvarez played 66 minutes of Tuesday's Champions League semifinal second leg 1-0 loss against Arsenal at the Emirates with the help of an infiltration before the ankle gave way, fo...

Impact Alvarez had done everything possible to feature in such a crucial European night, working with the club's recovery staff right up until kickoff and receiving treatment until the last possible moment before the match. The Argentine striker was characteristically committed throughout his time on the pitch, pressing hard defensively and showing good movement in attack, before a crossing action past the hour mark caused the ankle to flare up beyond the point he could continue. Alvarez began limping immediately and attempted to play through the discomfort before ultimately signaling to the bench that he could not carry on, leaving Atletico without their most important attacking weapon for the remaining minutes of a defining European night. Alexander Sorloth could see more playing time during upcoming fixtures as the club will unlikely rush the Argentine forward now with the World Cup looming in around one month.

Alexander Sorloth - Fit for bench Sorloth (hamstring) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Arsenal.

Impact Sorloth was back in training this week, and that has led to his addition to the team sheet, although only as an option from the bench. The forward is likely to be called on later in the match to replace one of their attackers, although he could see time earlier if Atletico find themselves in a hole and needing goals quickly.

Jose Maria Gimenez - Picked for bench Gimenez (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Arsenal.

Impact Gimenez is with his team Tuesday as they try to make their way to the UCL final, an option from the bench to start. This will give the club some more depth in the defense, a useful option if they find themselves with the lead and defending their net. That said, he will likely only be used if certain scenarios arise.

Giuliano Simeone - Starting Tuesday Simone (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Arsenal.

Impact Simone was always likely to return Tuesday after he suffered a minor injury in the first leg, with the midfielder starting instantly. This is a major development for the club as they get back some of their elusiveness on the flanks, an attacker who can find space and create his own. However, he has not recorded a UCL goal contribution since the league stage.
