Atletico Madrid meets Juventus in round 3 of International Champions Cup. The match will be played on Saturday, August 10th at Friends Arena (Stockholm)
Atletico had held a very interesting transfer policy - one of the team leaders, Antoine Griezmann left, and he, in many respects, kept the game of Atletico in the last season, but Felix, who had already managed to prove himself, replaced him. Simeone also has new faces such as Kieran Trippier, Vrsalco, Felipe, Hector Herrera and Marcos Llorente. In this season, the Madrid team may well compete for the highest places in all tournaments; after all, Real Madrid clearly did not find itself, Barcelona does not rejuvenate its squad, so it will be difficult to pull, and Simeone is a too purposeful coach and wants to win a trophy. It is worth noting that Atletico plays very productively in this offseason - in 5 out of 6 matches involving the Mattress Makers, 3+ goals were scored, and I think that in the match with Juventus, which is incredibly strong in attack, Atletico will show a spectacular match again...

Juventus is even more interesting concerning transfers. Barzagli, Cáceres, Spinazzola, and Kean - that’s basically all Juventus losses, but look who came to the Turin club this summer: De Ligt, Demiral, Buffon, Pellegrini, Rabiot, Ramsey, Piazza, Gonzalo Higuain. Now we can really say that Juventus has a bench, and the Old Lady can play on two fronts, constantly rotating the squad. Yes, nothing is clear with Dybala and Mandzukic, but even without them, the attack of the Italian grandee looks incredibly frightening. Juve also conducts pre-season matches very efficiently, besides, Serie A starts soon enough, so the club needs to gain shape, I’m sure that the nominal visitors can show all their attacking potential in the upcoming match, but Juve’s defense is far from ideal now, and it will surely not keep a clean sheet...
It seems to me that we should expect scoring football in the upcoming game. Both Juventus and Atletico have the highest-class performers, and I am sure that the meeting will turn out to be rich in attempts and goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
