Atletico unable to count on Griezmann, Barrios, Gimenez, Azpilicueta for Cadiz clash
Atletico Madrid travelled to Cadiz on Friday with Antoine Griezmann, Jose Maria Gimenez, Thomas Lemar and Cesar Azpilicueta out injured, as well as Pablo Barrios, who is out of action with a fever. They were all left off Diego Simeone's 20-man squad list, which was completed by Salim El Jebari.
Griezmann, who is suffering from a sprained right ankle, and Gimenez, who has a muscle injury, will miss their fourth consecutive match while Lemar will be absent for the 37th game in a row and Azpilicueta for the 13th due to a meniscus tear on 18 January.
Pablo Barrios will also miss the trip to Cadiz due to "a feverish case of pharyngotonsillitis" which has prevented him from training in the last three sessions, according to the club.
