Altléti have opted for 5 changes from their side that overturned Valencia 3-0 on Sunday. Cesar Azpilicueta and Samuel Lino are replaced by Reinildo and Riquleme in defence, while Griezmann drops back into midfield. Conor Gallagher and Alexander Sorloth make way for a new strike partnership of Alvarez and Correa.
