Antoine Griezmann - Provides assist in draw Griezmann assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one corner in Wednesday's 3-3 draw versus Club Brugge.

Impact Griezmann delivered the decisive touch on Atletico's second goal, redirecting a headed corner into the danger zone for Ademola Lookman to score just before halftime. The Frenchman made his first start since late November and brought control to Atletico's first-half tempo, dropping deeper to link midfield and attack while putting in the work on defensive set pieces. He also chipped in with two chances created during his run, a reminder that even after sliding out of the regular starting XI this season, he still has the class and vision to make a real impact for the Colchoneros.

Ademola Lookman - Scores first goal with Atletico Lookman scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Wednesday's 3-3 draw against Club Brugge.

Impact Lookman doubled Atletico's advantage deep into first-half stoppage time, burying a point-blank finish after Antoine Griezmann nodded a corner back across goal. He was active and sharp inside the box throughout the opening 45 minutes, even seeing another close-range effort denied as Atletico kept their foot on the gas. The strike marked his first goal for Atletico since arriving in the winter transfer window and his second in eight Champions League appearances this season.

Julian Alvarez - Early penalty sets tone Alvarez scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Wednesday's 3-3 draw versus Club Brugge.

Impact Alvarez got Atletico on the board early, calmly burying a penalty in the 8th minute after a handball call went their way. He remained active as the primary outlet in transition, later testing Simon Mignolet with a left-footed drive from distance in the first half. Atletico's early edge looked like it could set the tone, but a second-half unraveling meant his strike ultimately only salvaged a draw. The goal marked his first contribution since the start of 2026, snapping an eight-game stretch without delivering a decisive moment for the Colchoneros.

Jan Oblak - Seven saves in draw Oblak recorded seven saves and allowed three goals in Wednesday's 3-3 draw versus Club Brugge.

Impact Oblak made seven saves in a chaotic draw Wednesday against Brugge in the Champions League, constantly coming to Atletico's rescue as the Belgian side kept turning up the heat. He stonewalled Nicolo Tresoldi from point-blank range before the hour mark and later shut down multiple Christos Tzolis attemps, though the equalizer eventually slipped through late. Even so, he was beaten three times from close range or prime scoring angles on a demanding night that matched his season high with seven saves, and he'll aim to carry that sharp stopping form into Saturday's matchup with Espanyol.

Nico Gonzalez - Picks up muscle injury Gonzalez is out for the time being after suffering a muscle injury in his thigh, according to his club.

Impact Gonzalez is hitting the sidelines this week after he suffered an injury Sunday, with the attacker dealt a thigh injury. That said, he is likely to miss a week or two due to recovery, although this is uncertain. With 15 starts in 18 appearances this season, his absence would force a change, with Thiago Almada and new addition Ademola Lookman as possible replacements.

Jan Oblak - Allows three in loss Oblak recorded six saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Rayo Vallecano.

Impact Oblak had a tough outing, conceding three goals for only the second time in the league this season. The goalkeeper started in a heavily rotated side that saw nine changes from the big Copa del Rey semi-final victory over Barcelona in midweek, including both center backs Marc Pubill and David Hancko. He made six saves but could do little to prevent the big chances he faced. The Slovenian now shifts focus to Wednesday's first leg of Champions League playoff knockout phase game against Club Brugge, where a ticket to the round of 16 is on the line.

Rodrigo Mendoza Martinez Moya - Set for suspension Mendoza will serve a one-match ban due to an accumulation of five yellow cards in La Liga.

Impact Mendoza picked up his fifth yellow card in La Liga and will serve a one-match suspension Saturday against Espanyol. The midfielder had worked his way into the starting XI over the last two games with his new club, so his absence leaves a noticeable gap in the middle of the park. Koke is in line to step into a bigger role in midfield as the team reshuffles without Mendoza available.
