Atletico Madrid gear up to bounce back against Sevilla

After a grim month that ended their hopes of winning three major trophies, Atletico Madrid hit the training ground, determined to move past their Copa del Rey exit and defeat to Barcelona.

Diego Simeone's squad are ready to turn the page.

The rojiblancos kicked things off in the gym, with the starters from the Barcelona clash going through a standard recovery session, while the rest of the team knuckled down to prepare for a pivotal La Liga showdown.

Simeone, as ever, was at the helm, steering his side towards their next challenge, a trip to Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan stadium. With just one full training session scheduled before they travel, the Argentine boss has limited time to fine-tune his plans.

That clash with Sevilla is massive for Atletico. They're desperate to turn their form around and refocus on the 27 points still up for grabs in the league. "We've got to move on and fight for every point now," Simeone has said about digging deep in tough moments like these.

Whether he'll test his starting XI in the training sessios remains to be seen, but fans will be eager to see how he lines up to break this rough patch.

With the Copa del Rey gone and the league now their sole focus, Atletico are at a crossroads. All eyes will be on Simeone to see if he can rally his troops and get them soaring again, starting with three points in Seville.
