The match, scheduled for 9:00 p.m. at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano, will be broadcast live on Movistar Plus and will have minute-by-minute coverage from Mundo Deportivo. The red and white club is looking for its sixth consecutive victory in the competition, while Deportivo, which has recently returned to the First Division, needs to add points to stay in the middle of the table and continue dreaming of promotion to the Euro Cup.
Atlético's coach, Diego Simeone, has chosen a 4-2-3-1 with Oblak in goal, Marcos Llorente and Marc Pubill in defense, Dávid Hancko and Grimaldo in midfield, Pablo Barrios and Hjulmand on the left, Kang-In Lee and Álex Baena on the right, Lookman and Julián Álvarez in attack.

For his part, Antonio Hidalgo has formed a 4-2-3-1 for Deportivo, with Leo Román as goalkeeper and a defense made up of Quagliata, Loureiro, Jose María Giménez and Alti. In midfield are Amatucci and Diego Villares, while the forward line has Yeremay, Mario Soriano and David Mella, with Bil Nsongo as the right winger. The Galician team's casualties include Aubameyang, Ede, Marc Casadó, Eddahchouri and Noé Carrillo, which has forced the coach to reinforce the squad with reserve players such as Álvaro Ferllo and Lucas Noubi.
The match has generated expectations due to the presence of Mario Soriano, who, although born in Alcalá de Henares and trained in the red and white youth team, now plays for Deportivo. His personal story adds an emotional element to the match, as the player has lived on both sides of the stadium. Furthermore, Deportivo has shown a solid performance in its first games of the season, making it a worthy rival for Atlético.
