Sparta Prague-Atletico Madrid is a match valid for the fifth day of the Champions League and is played on Tuesday at 6:45 p.m.: live TV, probable formations, prediction.
“Cholo” Simeone’s Atletico Madrid reacted in a big way after two ugly defeats to Benfica and Lille that threatened to jeopardize the Colchoneros’ path in the Champions League. On the last day of the single-group stage, a Correa goal in full recovery gave the Madrids a crucial victory at home to top-ranked PSG (1-2).Atletico now has 6 points and, more importantly, has re-entered the top 24 overall.
The success in Paris apparently acted as a driving force: in La Liga came two consecutive victories against Mallorca (0-1) and Alaves (2-1), which become three if we consider the one played before the challenge at the Parc des Princes with Las Palmas. An Atletico Madrid that is therefore also running fast in the league and that, at the time of writing, is second in the standings alone behind Barcelona. Simeone, however, has no intention of slowing down: in the Champions League it is forbidden to make a mistake against an opponent within reach such as Sparta Prague, which has immediately returned to the ranks after its excellent start (3-0 win against Salzburg and 1-1 at home to Stuttgart). The club from the Czech capital in the last two days was overwhelmed 5-0 by Manchester City and was overpowered by Brest (1-2) in front of its home crowd, remaining pegged at 4 points. By contrast, two draws in a row in the league for the Lars Friis-led team, fourth and already far behind rivals Slavia.
