Atlético Madrid begin their Champions League campaign by hosting Leipzig at the Wanda on Thursday (21.00). The Spanish team is the favourite to take home all three points in this revamped Champions League, although Leipzig is a team with resources. Atlético is in form and two of its new signings this year, Gallagher and Julián Álvarez, are showing excellent form. Atlético’s objective in the competition is to reach at least the quarter-finals of the top continental competition.
Leipzig have become a Champions League classic in recent seasons. They are currently third in the Bundesliga. They have not lost in three games played at home (two wins and one draw). Xavi Simons is also playing in their ranks.
