Thomas Lemar - Goal and assist in win Lemar scored once and provided one assist during Saturday's 2-0 win over Barcelona.

Impact Lemar and Luis Suarez stole the show Saturday, each producing a goal and assist during the easy win. Lemar is in good form and seems to be carving a role out in the starting XI. If he stays fit he will likely start after the break, against Granada.

Matheus Cunha - Thigh injury confirmed Cunha (thigh) underwent an MRI to confirm a thigh injury that occurred during Thursday training.

Impact Cunha will be out for Saturday's clash with Barcelona and could be facing a long period side-lined with a soft-tissue injury. The forward hasn't been getting much playing time for Atleti with Luis Suarez and Antoine Griezmann taking the lion's share of the forward duties. Cunha has the international break to recover, but it's likely he will miss time on the other side of the break as well.

Champions League: Lionel Messi scores first goal for Paris St. Germain vs. Man City

Jan Oblak - Quiet day for win Oblak made two saves during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Oblak only faced three shots as Milan went down to 10 men early in the match. The keeper was beaten once but it was still a solid performance. Oblak faces a low volume of shots in most matches, limiting his fantasy value, that's unlikely to change Saturday, against Barcelona.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Koke - Quiet in return Koke made his return and played 61 minutes during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Koke returned from a thigh injury that held him out for three matches, but didn't really do much in the match. It was a win, but not one he participated in on either side of the ball. Koke will look to return to his top form Saturday, at home against Barcelona.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Geoffrey Kondogbia - Busy defensively in return Kondogbia made seven tackles and three interceptions during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Kondogbia returned from a muscular injury at the weekend, and made another start, this time in the Champions League. He looked to not have missed a beat, putting in an excellent defensive performance, his best fantasy showing of the season. Next up is a Saturday clash with Barcelona.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Renan Lodi - Assists off bench Lodi provided one assist on five chances created during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Lodi came off the bench for the final 45 minutes and was immense. He created five chances and sent in four crosses, while doing everything to break down Milan's low block. The left-back has appeared in every match this season, but has started only twice. That is unlikely to change moving forward, limiting his fantasy ceiling.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Antoine Griezmann - Nets off bench Griezmann scored once on one shot during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Griezmann came off the bench to be a difference maker and did just that. He scored shortly after coming on, and linked up with Luis Suarez in attack. Griezmann finally opened his account on the season, and will look to open his league account Saturday, against Barcelona. Griezmann has failed to score in La Liga for both Barcelona and Atletico this season.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Suarez - Nets late penalty Suarez scored once on five shots (one on goal) during Tuesday's 2-1 win over Milan.

Impact Suarez scored a stoppage time penalty to secure the victory, though that was merely a band aid on the performance. The forward had a shorthanded Milan side to toy with for over an hour, and only managed a single shot on goal, the late penalty. Suarez has a Saturday clash with his former club, Barcelona, up next.

Thomas Lemar - Will be option in Milan Lemar (strain) is in the traveling squad for Tuesday's match against AC Milan.

Impact Lemar has been out since pulling a muscle in the UCL opener, but he used the two weeks to recover and will be an option again. Given this absence, he probably won't start Tuesday, but he'll undoubtedly be an option off the bench after being a fixture in the squad the first month of the season.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Suarez - Takes just one shot in loss Suarez had one off-target shot during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Alaves.

Impact Suarez had his worst performance of the campaign so far, being completely held in check by opposing defenders despite playing the full 90 minutes. The striker has only three goals over eight appearances (five starts) this season and will try to bounce back during Tuesday's Champions League visit to Milan.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Antoine Griezmann - Quiet performance in loss Griezmann had zero shots, sent in two inaccurate crosses and drew two fouls during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Alaves.

Impact Griezmann had a very quiet performance here, being kept at bay by opposing defenders during the entire match and not being able to take a single shot. The forward is yet to find the back of the net since rejoining Atletico and will try to open his scoring account during Tuesday's Champions League visit to Milan.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Jan Oblak - Concedes one in loss Oblak made zero saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Alaves.

Impact Oblak was beaten just four minutes into the game, when Victor Laguardia headed home a corner kick. He couldn't add any save to boost his fantasy value after the goal as the opposition wasn't able to find the target during the rest of the match. The goalkeeper will try to bounce back during Tuesday's Champions League visit to Milan.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Renan Lodi - Sends in five crosses in loss Lodi had two off-target shots and sent in five inaccurate crosses after coming off the bench during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Alaves.

Impact Lodi was once again used as a substitute after starting the previous two matches, being brought in the 60th minute to replace Yannick Carrasco. He gave a huge spark to Atletico's offense from the left flank, sending a lot of crosses into the opposition's box, but his teammates couldn't convert them into goals. The full-back will hope this showing helps him to fight for a starting spot for Tuesday's Champions League visit to Milan.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Rodrigo De Paul - Sends in 15 crosses in loss De Paul had one off-target shot, created one chance, sent in 15 crosses (two accurate) and drew four fouls during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Alaves.

Impact De Paul made his third start of the season and was one of the few positives on the offensive end, creating a lot of plays from scratch and sending a whopping 15 crosses into the opposition's box. But, unfortunately for Atletico, his teammates couldn't convert those plays into goals. The playmaker will hope this showing helps him to make his first Champions League start during Tuesday's visit to Milan.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Thomas Lemar - Out vs. Alaves Lemar (strain) is out for Saturday's showdown with Alaves after failing to make the initial squad list.

Impact Lemar isn't quite back to fitness and won't make the squad for Saturday's clash. The midfielder has now missed two of the three games he was expected to miss, though it's unclear how his recovery is progressing. His next chance to make the starting XI is a Tuesday trip to AC Milan, until then he is likely going to be replaced by Yannick Carrasco.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Koke - Makes preliminary squad Koke (thigh) is in the preliminary squad for Saturday's trip to Alaves.

Impact Koke is a somewhat surprising inclusion in the preliminary squad list after making a return to individual training Thursday. The midfielder is unlikely to be anywhere near 100% fit, so a start would be even more surprising. In his place Rodrigo De Paul has deputized well recently.
