Atletico Madrid hosts Lille at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in the Spanish capital in a match from the league stage of the UEFA Champions League. And it’s a perfect opportunity to present you our Accurate football score predictions today. Let’s see what we can tell you about it!
Atleti started their Champions League campaign with a win against RB Leipzig, but it was followed by a disastrous performance in Lisboa and a 0-4 loss against Benfica. It was one of Los Colchoneros’ worst defeats in the era of Diego Simeone. The Argentine manager had some difficulties to explain what led to such a poor performance by his team.
Despite these four goals conceded against Benfica, Atletico Madrid hosts Lille as favorite to take the win. Players like Conor Gallagher and Alexander Sorloth started from the bench against Benfica, but now we could see them in the line-up. Especially Gallagher is an important player since he joined Atletico from Chelsea this summer.
Lille will travel to the Spanish capital after a heroic 1-0 win against Real Madrid before the international break. Les Dogues managed to get the three points after a terrific display against the current holder of the trophy. Jonathan David scored the winning goal from a penalty kick.
The win against Real Madrid will give Lille some major confidence before facing Atletico. The French team now knows that they are good enough to go head to head with the best Spanish teams. And why not even progress to the Champions League’s knockout phase?
That’s the Accurate football score predictions today for the Champions League fixture between Atletico Madrid and Lille at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano on Wednesday night. Maybe Atletico are favorites on paper, but we are not one hundred percent sure about that after Lille’s win against Real Madrid. And of course – Atletico’s display against Benfica before the break.
