Atletico Madrid are sweating on the fitness of Mario Hermoso ahead of their Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund this week.
The defender is struggling with a thigh issue and has missed the last two games.
Renildo and Axel Witsel should join Jose Gimenez in a three-man backline, while Thomas Lemar is a long-term absentee.
Memphis Depay is a cause for concern after sitting out of Saturday’s training session.
Dortmund, meanwhile, have defender Nico Schlotterbeck available following his suspension against PSV in the Round of 16.
The major worry from their perspective is the form of Donyell Malen, who recently suffered a setback in his recovery from a hip problem.
