Atletico Madrid-Club Brugge is a match for Week 4 of the Champions League: live TV, streaming, predictions, line-ups
ATLETICO MADRID – CLUB BRUGGE | Wednesday 6.45pm
The World Turned Upside Down: Club Brugge first in the group with full points – with seven goals scored and zero conceded -, Atletico Madrid last in the group with two goals scored and a whopping five conceded. Who would have expected it? We challenge everyone, no one. The Belgian team is the real surprise of this first part of the Champions League. A team built with little money, but which is indeed a team, able to play on the mistakes of the opponents and to have no reverential fear. That is why Club Brugge is deservedly ahead of everyone. Although, the feeling this time is that Atletico Madrid might be able to get the better of them.
A peculiar moment at home to the Colchoneros: a team that, when it wins, does so with difficulty, but which, above all, is unable in any way to give continuity to its results. A team that is in last place in the Champions League and that, like last year, will have to play for the passage to the last round. But it must win, at all costs, to have any hope. Otherwise the situation would become even more complicated than it already is. In the two previous games played in Spain, however, Atletico always won. They should do so this time as well.
The Prediction
Atletico Madrid play everything, at home, against a team that on paper is clearly inferior. Against a team that, however, had the upper hand last week. Perhaps the fact that Simeone’s team may have a poisoned tooth might also help in this match. In short, the hosts should win it to stay hooked on the train leading to qualification for the round of 16.
