Fernandez arrived at the club during the January transfer window from Celta Vigo and had solidified himself in Simeone's plans as a replacement for Tiago Mendes.
Since Augusto's injury, Cholo has opted for a more attacking midfield and forward line, opting for Yannick Ferreira Carrasco instead of a more defensive central midfielder along with Antoine Griezmann and a striker as a trident of attacking options in a 4-3-3 formation.
Carrasco on the other hand is still out with an ankle injury while every other aspect of the squad is as expected.
Atletico's squad consists of: Oblak, Moyá; Juanfran, Gámez, Godín, Lucas, Giménez, Savic, Filipe, Gabi, Kranevitter, Augusto, Koke, Saúl, Óliver; Griezmann, Vietto, Correa and Torres.
