With nine matches remaining, Cholo Simeone’s side sit fourth in the Spanish league table with 57 points from 29 games: one point behind Villarreal, 12 points behind Real Madrid and 16 points behind Barcelona. Having knocked them out in the Copa del Rey semi-finals (where they reached the final against Real Sociedad, Griezmann’s former club), they will face them in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Orlando City have picked up just three points from their first five Major League Soccer matches, beating Montreal 2-1 but losing to the New York Red Bulls (1-2), Inter Miami (2-4), New York City (0-5) and Nashville (0-5).
