Lisbon (AP) - RB Leipzig takes on Yussuf Poulsen and Christopher Nkunku on the offensive for the Champions League quarter-finals against Atlético Madrid.
In the first competitive game without the former goal guarantor Timo Werner, however, coach Julian Nagelsmann does without the last ailing Patrik Schick in the starting line-up. Left-back Marcel Halstenberg, who like the Czech had back problems, was part of the starting line-up at the Estádio José Alvalade in Lisbon in the evening (9 p.m. / Sky and DAZN). At Atlético, the young Portuguese star João Félix only sits on the bench. For Leipzig it is the first quarter-finals in the premier football league.
THE POSITIONING OF RB LEIPZIG:
Gulásci - Klostermann, Upamecano, Halstenberg - Laimer, Sabitzer, Kampl, Angelino - Olmo, Nkunku - Poulsen
