Atletico Madrid hosts AC Milan in round 5 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 24th at Wanda Metropolitano (Madrid)
If Atletico Madrid does not win the upcoming game, it risks failing the current Champions League group stage. Let me remind you that Simeone's players have only four points after four rounds. All the results of the Mattress Makers in the European arena look like this: one victory, one draw, and two defeats with a goal difference of 4-6. At the moment, the Indians are in the 3rd position in the group standings. The gap to the 2nd Porto is only one point. If they beat Milan now, they can move up to the 2nd place right away. Even if Atletico Madrid simply doesn’t lose, it will secure the 3rd position and a ticket to the Europa League playoffs. But in the last five home matches in the Champions League, Atletico has not gained a single victory (three draws and two defeats).

Milan turned out to be too weak to perform with dignity in this Champions League. In four matches, the Red-Blacks could not gain a single victory (one draw and three defeats). As a result, they are in last place in the group at the moment. To count on spring performances in European Cups, AC Milan needs to score three points in the upcoming match. In the last seven games in the Champions League, the Rossoneri failed to win a single victory: two draws and five defeats. It should be noted that Stefano Pioli's charges conceded the most in their group — seven goals (with four goals scored). Milan suffered four defeats in the last five away games in the Champions League. Three out of four matches in the current group stage ended with an exchange of goals scored.
Both the hosts and the visitors need only victory. This means that hardly any of them will sit back on heels for 90 minutes. There is every chance that we will see a fairly productive and bright match. In any case, such a thought is prompted by the fact that neither the hosts nor the visitors will be satisfied with a draw, and even more so with a defeat. Yes, it may not be worth waiting for 4-5 goals scored in the upcoming match. But at the same time, a goal exchange may well happen. Moreover, both Milan and Atlético Madrid have someone to score.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score — yes
