Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone says Kieran Trippier will be ready for the return-leg of their clash with Chelsea.

Chelsea took control of their Champions League round 16 tie with a 1-0 first-leg win.

But Simeone says their line-up will be strengthened with the return from suspension of Trippier and Yann Carrasco.

He said: "The boys have not responded badly. Seeing the team's work and the involvement, I feel good.

"I trust the team. If we were in September and they told me that we were first in the league and we lost 0-1 in the first leg of the round of 16, I would sign for it.

"But the timing is not good."

He added: "The return will be tough, like everything in the Champions League. You have to seek tranquility to live with the team moment."
