Atletico Madrid hosts Liverpool in the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Wednesday, February 19th at Wanda Metropolitano (Madrid)
Atletico experiences serious difficulties this season, and it doesn’t have the successes that were last season. As before, this team remains one of the best in the Spanish championship in terms of defense. Currently, the club takes fourth place in the standings. It has serious problems with the attack. The Mattress Makers lack experienced forwards to ensure good performance. Altogether, Atlético has ten wins, ten draws, and four losses. It was not easy in the international arena either. The Spaniards managed to prove themselves thanks to the reliable defense. They took second place and advanced to the playoffs, but, frankly, the rivals were very strong. Atlético managed to record three wins, one draw, and two losses. The continuation expects to be no less easy. Now the team must work on the line of attack, so as not to relegate in the first round. The team played the last match against Valencia and tied at the Bats’ stadium (2-2).

Everything is going well for Liverpool. It managed to show an excellent game in the international arena. The team finished the group stage in first place in its group. Over the entire period, the Reds managed to gain four victories, one draw, and one defeat. The team didn’t have any particular difficulties, which is why it advanced to the playoffs so easily. Liverpool is even better in the national championship than in the international tournament. It is leading in the Premier League standings. This season the club has not suffered a single defeat yet. It managed to gain 25 victories and tied only once. In general, the team is in perfect order. It pulled away from the closest pursuer, Manchester City, by 25 points. Liverpool has its leader in the squad, and this is striker Mohamed Salah. The footballer scored 14 goals this season, and thanks to this he takes the third place in the ranking of the top scorers in the English championship. Only Manchester City has the best scoring in the Premier League. But as we said earlier, Liverpool has no peers in terms of defense. It conceded only 15 goals in 26 rounds. The continuation promises to be eventful because the team surely doesn’t want to spoil its statistics and remain invincible.
Bookmakers believe that Liverpool will win in the upcoming match. This season, the Spanish club could not show a decent level of the game. On the other hand, Liverpool managed to surprise all the fans. Therefore, I think the English club will become the winner.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win
