Quotes
 
"Against Almería, we had 70-something percent possession," Atletico manager Diego Simeone said ahead of their games against Inter Milan in midweek before facing Almeria.
 
"Against Las Palmas, 30. We think about playing one game or another depending on what happens.
 
"I'm not going to say it. We need to play with the intensity of cup matches. Inter has weapons to attack from any side. We'll play from where we can hurt them."
 
Head-to-Head 
 
Atletico secured a 2-1 win over Almeria in their last meeting in La Liga and the game took place at the Estádio Cívitas Metropolitano on 10 December 2023.
 
As a result, the Mattress Makers are undefeated in their last five league matches against Rojiblancos having registered four wins and one draw.
