Atletico Madrid ended 2024 with 12 straight wins in all competitions, and they aim to make it 13 against Osasuna on Sunday. Doing so would see them return to the top of La Liga, having dropped to second place following Real Madrid's victory over Valencia last week.
Diego Simeone's squad is full of confidence and ahead of the match at the Metropolitano, the Argentine head coach has restored three key players after minor injury problems. According to Diario AS, Jan Oblak, Pablo Barrios and Alexander Sorloth were present during Thursday's training. However, club captain Koke Resurreccion was absent, although he will be fine on Sunday.
The former pair are expected to start against Osasuna, with Sorloth taking a familiar place on the bench. At this stage, only Jose Maria Gimenez is unavailable for Atletico Madrid, although he could still be involved this weekend depending on how his recovery goes over the next 48 hours.
