Stefan Savic - Keeps clean sheet in winSavic kept a clean sheet with two interceptions made during Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactSavic returned to the lineup after missing six matches with a thigh injury and looked composed alongside defensive partner Jose Maria Gimenez. A busy month will offer plenty of chances to see if Atleti can get consistent defensively and Savic should be key in that puzzle as they've kept two clean sheets in his three starts this season.

Jan Oblak - Keeps clean sheet in winOblak kept a clean sheet with three saves made during Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactOblak got his first clean sheet since the third match of the season and he can thank the returns of Stefan Savic and Jose Maria Gimenez in securing the result. With the two stalwarts back in the lineup, Oblak could be on the road to reproducing his best form following a disappointing campaign last season and an imperfect start to the present one with five goals conceded in six league matches.

Matheus Cunha - Provides assist in winCunha logged one assist from two chances created and put one shot on target in 72 minutes of Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactCunha did well in his first start of the season after contributing to the Brazilian national team during a strong September window. For Cunha, he'll need to work his way into the lineup with more frequency if he's to offer much in fantasy and Saturday was a good start on that road. He'll still have to compete with Joao Felix for minutes but both should be capable of solid production when playing at their best.

Joao Felix - Concedes yellow card in winFelix conceded a yellow card during a late entry into Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactFelix couldn't start due to a knock taken on international duty but wasn't needed until late into Saturday's game. With Alvaro Morata in better form, Felix will hope to get back into the lineup and take advantage of a busy month of October to score his first goal of the season.

Nahuel Molina - Leaves late after good showingMolina created one chance from 10 crosses and won two-of-three tackles before his early departure from Saturday's match against Sevilla

ImpactIt's not fully certain what's ailing Molina but he looked exceptional during Saturday's result and now has 16 crosses provided over his last two starts. If he were to remain injured for Tuesday's trip to Club Brugge, Marcos Llorente might have to move back to right-back.

Alvaro Morata - Finds net in winMorata scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) and created one chance in 61 minutes during Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactMorata got back on the scoresheet for the first time in five league and UCL matches just before his replacement in the second half. With four league goals in seven appearances (six starts), Morata figures to remain the starting striker and there won't always be room for Joao Felix in the formation. If the defense can stay fit with Stefan Savic and Jose Maria Gimenez as anchors, Morata could continue to flourish in more consistent ways.

Marcos Llorente - Scores in winLlorente scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) and created two chances during Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

ImpactLlorente found the net for the first time this season, taking as many shots as striker Alvaro Morata during Saturday's contest. He could be getting more comfortable in his role as a right-sided midfielder but what really helps Llorente is having a stable defense which allows him to get forward with more proficiency. If Llorente can keep up his offensive production, watch if he can come anywhere close to matching his 12-goal, 11-assist effort from the 2020/21 campaign.
