Copa del Rey 2024-2025: Elche-Atletico Madrid, the probable formations
Elche-Atletico Madrid, the probable formations
The Colchoneros led by Diego Simeone are going through an extraordinary period, with 14 consecutive victories among all competitions and a first place in the league that has been missing for years. The white-and-red team boasts a one-point lead over Real Madrid and a gap of as many as six points over Barcelona.
However, è it is important not to underestimate the Franjiverdes coached by Eder Sarabia, protagonists of an exceptional moment of form with 4 consecutive successes without conceding goals, among which the surprising 4-0 inflicted on Las Palmas in the previous round stands out, and in the upper zones of the Segunda División standings: they are second.
The contest will start rather late: the whistle will be blown at 9:30 p.m.
Probable lineups
Elche: San Román; Carvajal, Diaby, Affenbruger, Núñez; Febas, Castro, Mendoza, Yago; Nico, Agustín.
Atlético: Oblak; Marcos Llorente, Azpilicueta, Witsel, Lenglet, Javi Galán; Barrios, Koke, Griezmann, Lino; Correa.
