Key Points

• Atlético concentrated; Julián returned but with.
• Diego Simeone gives a 24-man list for the Madrid derby: Julián Álvarez returns after a supercharge, while Alexander Sorloth (8th game in a row) and Pablo Barrios (3rd in a row) are still missing.
• El Atlético concentrates on Julián's turn, but with two key points.

Diego Simeone released Saturday's 24-man list for tomorrow's prestigious derby against Real Madrid, bringing good news and concerns for Atlético de Madrid. The strongest news is the return to condition of Julián Álvarez, who missed two previous matches due to a supercharge; he belongs to the group that the coach sent for the big match. According to club information, Simeone himself indicated this morning after training that Álvarez was in the group. The coach's statement translated his caution: "He is with us and then we will decide whether he will start from the beginning or enter the second season." This is a clear sign that the door is open for the Argentine to contribute, but his start has not yet been officially confirmed. The news is not so good for Alexander Sorloth and Pablo Barrios. Sorloth is still out and is missing for the eighth consecutive match with a muscular injury. Barrios, on the other hand, is on his third consecutive absence due to the same muscle problem. The loss of these two makes attacking options difficult for Simeone and may change tactics depending on how Álvarez and the other forwards are used. Complete list of those called up for the derby: Jan Oblak, Juan Musso, Salvador Esquivel; Marc Pubill, David Hancko, Cristian 'Cuti' Romero, Robin Le Normand, Jorge Domínguez, Dani Martínez, Alejandro Grimaldo; Marcos Llorente, Koke Resurrección, Morten Hjulmand, Jorge Castillo, Rodrigo Mendoza, Álex Baena, Johnny Cardoso, Obed Vargas; Giuliano Simeone, Ademola Lookman, Arnau Ortiz; Kang-In Lee, Julián Álvarez, Jonathan David. El Derbi madrileño has always provided an intense physical and tactical challenge, and Simeone's decisions about including or bringing on Álvarez could set the tone for Atlético's attack. While supporters hope that Julián's return will help, the coaching staff will continue to make sure that the player does not return without his full condition. Sorloth and Barrios' medical situation and any final update from the club before kickoff will remain the center of attention. For Atlético, every available option is important in front of Real Madrid in such a derby, and the combination of the team's ability and health will shape their tactical plan.

What's next

Diego Simeone is expected to decide whether Julián Álvarez will start or come on as a substitute in the second half of the match. Atlético's strategy may change based on his performance and how they can improve their attack despite the disadvantages. This match will be an important test for Atlético in their aim to fight at the top of LaLiga EA Sports.
