Atletico won 13 points out of 18 in the Champions League group stage and will hope to repeat the 3-0 win they recorded in Eindhoven in the 2008/09 Champions League when the two clubs were in the same first-round section. Atletico Madrid are looking to make it through to the quarter-finals for the third straight year. The Rojiblancos have kept 11 clean sheets in their last 15 Champions League games. In the group stages, they won away to Galatasaray and Benfica, but failed to do the same in Astana (0-0). They hold 2nd place in the Primera Division sitting 8 points behind Barcelona, so the Champions League looks a more possible target than the Liga.

Possible lineup
Atlético: Oblak; Juanfran, Godín, Giménez, Filipe Luís; Koke, Gabi, Saúl Ñíguez, Óliver Torres; Griezmann, Fernando Torres.
Out: Carrasco (ankle), Partey (hamstring), Tiago (leg)
Doubtful: none
Misses next match if booked: Óliver

Atletico can be too strong to break defensively and is capable to score under any circumstances (counter attack or while dominating possession). Vamos Atleti!
