On Wednesday night, Atletico Madrid faces a massive Champions League game, as they face Lokomotiv Moscow in Group A of the Champions League.
Diego Simeone’s team head into this clash second in the group, but having picked up just four points from their opening three games in this season’s competition. A 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture was a disappointing result for Diego Simeone’s team who trail group leaders Bayern Munich by five points.
Los Rojiblancos would put themselves in a far healthier position with a victory in this one. The men from Madrid are in good form, as they are unbeaten in six matches in all competitions, picking up five wins in the process.
Their recent form may be good, but that mixed start to their Group A campaign has given them a poor recent record in the Champions League. In fact, Atletico have won just one of their last four games in Europe’s elite competition.
However, Atletico Madrid’s recent home record in the Champions League is excellent, as they have won nine of their last 11 games in the competition on home soil, while remaining unbeaten in the run.
Lokomotiv Moscow were expected to be the weakest team in the group. However, the Russian team have at least picked up two draws so far in the campaign.
The draws give Lokomotiv a chance of finishing third in the group ahead of Austrian team Salzburg, who are currently bottom, with just one point.
The draws in this season’s competition have been the visitors biggest achievement in the Champions League of late. They have failed to win in eight games in Europe’s elite competition, suffering six defeats in the process.
Forebet predicts that Atletico will continue their fine recent form by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
