Game Preview
Atletico Madrid will host Feyenoord for the second matchday in the Champions League group stages on Wednesday, October 4th at Cívitas Metropolitano in Madrid, Spain. Atletico will enter this game following a 1-1 draw against Lazio in their last Champions League match, while the visitors managed to top E by defeating Celtic 2-0.
Atletico Madrid will be looking to obtain their first Champions League win, after drawing 1-1 from a late equalizer from Lazio’s goalkeeper Ivan Provedel. Atletico has only triumphed in only two of their previous eleven group stage games in the Champions League, but how they responded to this setback has proven impressive. Just a few days after, they defeated their closest rivals Real Madrid by a score of 3-1 in La Liga, and following wins to Osasuna and Cadiz have moved them up to 4th place in the Spanish league table. The upcoming recoveries of Memphis Depay and Rodrigo de Paul will benefit the home team. However, Pablo Barrios, Caglar Soyuncu, Thomas Lemar, and Reinildo are still unable to play due to injuries.
Calvin Stengs as well as Alireza Jahanbakhsh’s goals gave the visiting team a comfortable 2-0 home victory against Celtic in the Champions League season opener. Since then, they have won both of their Eredivisie contests, culminating in a 3-1 victory against Go Ahead Eagles in their own stadium on Saturday. They are currently undefeated in Eredivisie and stand in 4th place in the league table. For Feyenoord, Santiago Gimenez is still suspended, while Justin Bijlow and Luka Ivanusec will be out of this game due to injury.
Feyenoord can begin a Champions League season with consecutive victories if they defeat Atleti, however they must get past a dismal road record in the tournament. They have dropped 7 of their past 8 Champions League games away from De Kuip, that includes their most recent 5 games straight.
