World: Serlot is likely to start against Sevilla, Simeone wants him to get back to form

November 1st, "World Sports News" reported that unless there are last-minute changes, Serlot will start in Atletico Madrid's game against Sevilla. This will be the Norwegian forward's opportunity to regain his scoring sense.

Serlot has only scored two goals so far this season, and these statistics are a far cry from his performance last season, when he was one of the most efficient forwards in all of Europe. He scored these two goals in 14 games this season, 4 of which were starts, and played a total of 462 minutes, which is equivalent to scoring a goal every 231 minutes. Last season, he was the most efficient forward in La Liga, scoring a goal every 94 minutes, which is a huge gap.

Simeone hopes that he can revive the team's glory, so he is giving him playing time and starting him in some important games, such as the derby or the Champions League away game against Arsenal. Against Sevilla, he is very likely to form the team's striker with Alvarez. This is a good opportunity to make a name for himself.

This game will be an unpleasant reunion for Serlot, who will once again encounter the referee who sent him off against Mallorca. Hernandez Maheso will be officiating against Atletico Madrid for the third time in his career, the last time he sent off Serlote for a nasty foul in a 55-50 challenge.
