Atletico Madrid vs Juventus
The end to a perfect record in La Liga came at a bad time for Atl Madrid. Because, in the middle of the week they will meet with Juventus in the first week of Group D UCL. The match opened at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.
Los Colchoneros had opened the campaign this season with three consecutive wins in La Liga. However, the record had just stopped last weekend when it lost 2-0 at the Real Sociedad headquarters. To add to the nightmare, Jan Oblak also had to be pulled out when entering the middle of the second half and it is uncertain whether to appear in the match tomorrow.
On the other hand, Juventus also appear less than perfect when they travel to the Fiorentina headquarters. The result, they went home with a score of glasses so they have to queue in the rank 3 Serie A.
Matthijs de Light will be back in this match following the absence of Giorgio Chiellini who suffered a long injury. Meanwhile, Blaise Matuidi and Sami Khedira are likely to continue appearing regularly despite being allowed to leave in the transfer market last summer.
The two camps just met at UCL last year in the last 16. At that time Atl Madrid won 2-0 at Metropolitano, but then lost 3-0 in Turin. As a result of this incident, the match will take place hot, especially if the host has also just received the inaugural defeat in La Liga. However, Atl Madrid remains a favorite because Metropolitano always gives good luck.
