Atletico Madrid vs RB Leipzig Prediction 19 September 2024
Added on 18 September, 2024
An interesting confrontation between Atletico and RB Leipzig will highlight the program of the Champions League matchday 1!
At the moment, Atletico share the second and third place in La Liga with Real and at the same time do not have any defeats. Earlier, Los Colchoneros apparently easily dealt with Girona (3:0), Athletic (1:0) and Valencia (3:0), but faced unexpected difficulties in duels with Villarreal (2:2) and Espanyol (0:0).
Last weekend, RB Leipzig unexpectedly failed to break the resistance of Union Berlin (0:0), but before that, not only underdog Bochum (1:0) but also the current Bundesliga champions Bayer (3:2) fell victim to them. Let us remind you that a year earlier, the Red Bulls reached the Champions League round of 16, where they could not resist Real Madrid.
On paper, Atletico look much stronger, and at home they perform with double the motivation. Yes, RB Leipzig will have a chance for local success, but we still believe more in three points for Simeone's charges.
