Atlético de Madrid

  • Defensive solidity: with Oblak and the line of four, a tactical reaction in Simeone's style is expected, making transitions difficult.
  • Counterattacks: Álvarez and Sorloth form an efficient duo for counterattacks.

🗣 In the press

  • The Reuters agency points out tension due to protests in Los Angeles, but states that athletes "have not been affected" and remain focused.
  • Luis Enrique, in an interview with ESPN, highlighted the need for total focus: "We are ready to put our name in this tournament".

🎯 Scenarios for the game

  • If PSG controls the midfield with Neves, Vitinha, and Ruiz, they should dominate possession and create chances.
  • Atlético needs to resist the initial pressure and use the speed of their attackers to exploit counterattacks.
