Atletico – Bayer. Forecast and announcement for the Champions League match

On January 21, the match of the 7th round of the main round of the Champions League will be held at the “Metropolitano”, in which “Atletico” will meet “Bayer”. The match will start at 22:00 Kyiv time.

Atletico

Last season’s team was able to close the top 4 in the Premier League not without effort. They missed the sensational Girona above, and Athletic created problems for a long time, but switched to the cup in the spring. As a result, a large-scale restructuring of the warehouse was carried out in the summer. And the fall was not without mishaps. Among other things, there were also failures in the Champions League, when after 2:1 with RB Leipzig, which failed, they lost to Benfica 0:4 and Lille 1:3. But then it turned out to give a series of victories there as well, gaining the maximum with PSG, Sparta Prague and Slovan Bratislava. At the same time, Griezmann and company managed to establish themselves among the leaders of the Premier League. And now, apparently, the struggle for leadership in La Liga will be a priority for Diego Simeone – in the European Cup, they have de facto guaranteed a place in the playoffs, and there you can only try to take a higher place for a better draw.

Bayer

The club produced the best season in history in 2023/2024. He never lost in the domestic arena, thus brilliantly winning his first silver salad bowl, and later adding the German cup. Now there is a competition with Bayern, which has revived and added. They were knocked out in the cup, and they won 1:0 in Munich. But still, in the Bundesliga, the record holders scored a little more points, and Xabi Alonso’s wards are now in a position to catch up. At the same time, the Germans deservedly returned to the Champions League. They started with dry victories over Feyenoord and Milan, then, after scoring only a point against Brest and a crushing loss against Liverpool, they finished the schedule for 2024, winning against Red Bull and even Inter.
