Ivo Grbic - Makes two saves in relief Grbic made two saves in 21 minutes of Saturday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.
Impact Grbic had to replace the injured Jan Oblak to finish out a difficult road contest and did well in relief. Should Oblak need to miss any matches with his shoulder issue, Grbic has conceded three goals in four appearances this season and should be a reliable option as long as the defense continues their solid recent form (three clean sheets in last five matches).

Reinildo Mandava - Exceptional in win Reinildo logged nine tackles (seven won), made four interceptions and stopped three shots during Saturday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.
Impact Reinildo is probably the biggest reason why Atleti came away with a road win, as he was able to stop both Inaki Williams and Nico Williams and whomever else tried to press him down the flank. He's now kept three clean sheets in his last five starts between the league and UCL, racking up 20 tackles and 12 interceptions in that time. So long as the attack steps up their efforts, Reinildo has found his form and can offer good defensive value.

Antoine Griezmann - Scores in win Griezmann scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.
Impact Griezmann has now started four straight times and twice since his permanent signing for Atleti, looking exceptionally confident with one goal and one assist in his last three games. It could prove fruitful to track Griezmann and Alvaro Morata over the coming weeks, as both have looked efficient when starting together.
OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Alvaro Morata - Logs assist in win Morata logged one assist from one chance created in 69 minutes of Saturday's 1-0 win over Athletic Club.
Impact Morata set up Antoine Griezmann's winning goal to secure a solid road result. Though he's started just three times in the last five games, Morata has scored once and now assisted once when playing from kickoff in that time. Though there's still further improvement to make, Morata is definitely one to watch as his partnership with Griezmann develops and with Joao Felix out of favor with the manager.

Griezmann lifts Atlético to 3rd after win at Bilbao

Antoine Griezmann has scored to help Atlético Madrid win at Athletic Bilbao 1-0 and move ahead of the Basque club into third place in the Spanish league

Jan Oblak - Leaves early with hard fall Oblak left Saturday's matchup against Athletic Club with an apparent upper body injury. Prior to departing, he had maintained a clean sheet across 69 minutes.
Impact Oblak sustained a mid-air collision and landed heavily on his shoulder and head. The medical team came onto the pitch to assess the situation and determined he could not continue. After the game per Atletico Universe, Oblak posted via Instagram, "I don't remember much of the game but happy with the end result." He was replaced during the 70th by backup Ivo Grbic, who figures to hold down the fort at the keeper spot if Oblak misses any time.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Axel Witsel - On bench versus Athletic Witsel was moved to the bench for Saturday's clash with Athletic Club.
Impact Witsel had previously started all eight of his La Liga appearances since coming over to Atletico from Dortmund. Accordingly, the move to the bench for this one is likely rest-related, and he could be called upon if his squad need to defend a result later in the match.
OCTOBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Nahuel Molina - Sends in nine crosses in UCL Molina created one chance, sent in nine crosses (one accurate) and made two tackles (one won) in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Club Brugge.
Impact Molina sent in the second-most crosses for his side during the game, but it wasn't enough to help them earn the win at home. The right-back has been a reliable source of crosses in the season. He has yet to assist, though, after nine starts.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Thomas Lemar - Sends in three crosses in draw Lemar took one off-target shot, created one chance, sent in three inaccurate crosses and made one tackle (won) in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Club Brugge.
Impact Lemar had a quiet outing before subbing off in the 60th minute, but could not do much during their disappointing home draw. The midfielder started for the fourth time in seven appearances in the season. He has yet to play the full 90 minutes so far, though.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Antoine Griezmann - Takes eight shots versus Brugge Griezmann took eight shots (five on target), sent in four inaccurate crosses and made one tackle (zero won) in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Club Brugge.
Impact Griezmann led his side in shots during the match, but couldn't find the back of the net to help them earn three points at home. The eight shots were a season-high for him. The forward has three goals and one assist in 12 appearances (four starts), but scored for the last time in early September.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Geoffrey Kondogbia - Starts and makes five tackles Kondogbia took three off-target shots, sent in one inaccurate cross, made five tackles (three won) and three interceptions and picked up a yellow card in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Cl...
Impact Kondogbia had a good all-around performance, leading his side in tackles and taking the second-most shots, but it wasn't enough to earn the home win. The midfielder also received his first yellow card of the season in the proccess. He started for the third time in eight appearances, and the first in UCL play.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Stefan Savic - Makes three tackles in UCL Savic registered one chance created, three tackles (one won), two clearances and a yellow card in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Club Brugge.
Impact Savic had a good defensive outing, even though it was a quiet match for Atletico's defense. The centerback led his side in clearances and made the second-most tackles to help them keep the clean sheet at home. He also received his third yellow card of the season, though.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jan Oblak - Keeps clean sheet in draw Oblak made one save in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Club Brugge.
Impact Oblak wasn't really tested during the 90 minutes, as they dominated the game, but couldn't score to earn the home win. The goalkeeper now has four clean sheets in 10 starts in the season, between La Liga and UCL. He will now visit Athletic on Saturday.
OCTOBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Joao Felix - Left on bench in draw Felix was left on the bench during Wednesday's scoreless draw with Club Brugge.
Impact Felix was left frustrated by the outcome Wednesday after spending much of the second half warming up only to be left out when his team needed to score. As he's now failed to start in four straight games, Felix can certainly be worried about his situation with even Matheus Cunha finding chances to play over him.

Antoine Griezmann - Signs contract through 2026 Griezmann signed a contract extension through 2026, it was announced Monday.
Impact It had been announced that Griezmann permanently transferred to Atletico over the weekend after his club and Barcelona came to an agreement about a rather dubious loan situation. While his form in the last three seasons doesn't warrant his high wages, Griezmann now has one assist from 10 chances created and 10 shots taken over the last four matches (three starts). Should the Frenchman continue to play like this, he could outlast Joao Felix as a starter in the attack.
OCTOBER 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Antoine Griezmann - Logs an assist Griezmann assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate), and five corners in Saturday's 2-1 win over Girona.
Impact Griezmann made his second appearance in the starting XI and produced by recording his first assist on the season. Although he began the year facing contract restrictions that prevents him from playing certain amount of minutes, the Frenchman may be released from these restrictions soon due to a pending permanent transfer. Even so, he has been able to total an assist, 25 crosses (four accurate) and 14 corners in the last four matches.
OCTOBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Angel Correa - Scores brace Correa scored two goals to go with four shots (three on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Girona.
Impact Correa only made his second start and it proved to be the right decision with two goals on the day. The Argentinian can play in any position in the midfield or as a striker but is typically just used as a sub with Matheus Cunha and Marcos Llorente getting more minutes in the starting XI. Regardless, Correa will be an important bench player for Atletico Madrid with already three goals, one assist, nine chances created and 11 crosses (three accurate) in 11 appearances thus far.
OCTOBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Jan Oblak - Three saves in win Oblak recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Girona.
Impact Oblak performed well against Girona despite giving up a goal to Rodrigo Riquelme that ruined his clean sheet. Looks like he is recovering from an early season thigh injury well with a total of eight saves and five goals allowed in the last four games played since returning from injury. The 29-year-old now averages 2.2 saves per match in LaLiga with a total of three clean sheets. He looks to get redemption in a Champions League match visit against Club Brugge on Wednesday, who scored twice on Oblak last outing.

Jose Maria Gimenez - Participates in training Gimenez participated without issue during Thursday's session ahead of Saturday's match against Girona, according to Victor Gomez of AS.
Impact Gimenez only played for the first half during Tuesday's 2-0 loss to Club Brugge and was pulled from that contest as a precaution. As a result, he should have little issue starting by the weekend. So far, Gimenez hasn't started more than three straight games before picking up an injury this season.
OCTOBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Marcos Llorente - Out up to six weeks Llorente suffered a thigh injury during Tuesday's 2-0 loss to Club Brugge in the UCL, his club confirmed after the game.
Impact Llorente is expected to miss up to six weeks, which knocks him out of the first half of the season but there's still a chance he's back by the World Cup. During his absence, Angel Correa could get his first serious run as a starter this season, as he's played once from kickoff in 10 appearances so far.
