Joao Felix - Logs assist off bench Felix logged one assist across 16 minutes during a 4-3 win Saturday versus Getafe.

Marcos Llorente - Back in starting XI Llorente (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Getafe.

Impact Llorente is back Saturday after missing the last few weeks with a hamstring injury. He's dealt with a couple issues in recent months, so he'll hope to get back to fitness this week, though it's hard to see him starting three-straight matches prior to the Feb. 23 Champions League contest.

Jan Oblak - Concedes four in loss Oblak made zero saves and conceded four goals during Sunday's 4-2 loss against Barcelona.

Impact Oblak had a nightmare performance against Barcelona despite not being exactly at fault for any of the four goals conceded in a 39-minute stretch. But the fact that he couldn't made a single save during the entire match dragged down his fantasy output. It's been an atypical season for the goalkeeper, who's averaging over a goal conceded per match for the first time since he joined Atletico back in 2014. Oblak will try to bounce back during Saturday's home clash against Getafe.

On the other hand, the centre back helped putting his side back in contention in the 58th minute as his header off a corner from the right was deflected into the net by Luis Suarez. This was the first appearance on the scoresheet of the season for the centre back and he'll try to remain productive on both ends during Saturday's home match against Getafe.

Luis Suarez - Scores, assists in loss Suarez scores a goal off three shots (two on target) and made an assist during Sunday's 4-2 loss against Barcelona.

Impact Suarez was one of Atletico's few bright spots here, assisting Yannick Carrasco for the opening goal of the match and then putting his side back in contention, cutting the deficit to two goals in the 58th minute from the six-yard box. This goal put to an end a 10-game scoreless streak and the striker will hope this is a sign of better things to come. Up next for Suarez is Saturday's home match against Getafe.

Yannick Carrasco - Scores in loss against Barcelona Carrasco scored a goal off two shots (one on target), created one chance and sent in four crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 4-2 loss against Barcelona.

Impact Carrasco struck first here, opening the scoring for Atleti in the 8th minute with a one-timed shot from close range off a pass from the right flank. But then the winger couldn't remain productive and saw the opposition scoring four times in 39 minutes to get a confortable win.

Daniel Wass - Picks up knee injury late Wass (knee) picked up a knee injury during Sunday's 4-2 loss to Barcelona.

Impact Wass was forced to finish the match out, but it was not for lack of pain. Following a rough Ferran Torres challenge the wing-back was in major pain, holding his knee, and grimacing.
