Atlético Madrid looks to continue winning streak against Sparta Praga
Atlético Madrid, led by Diego Simeone, arrives at the fifth game of the Champions League with a streak of five consecutive victories in all competitions. Their next opponent is Sparta Praga, who is in flames and in crisis both on and off the field.
The Czech team has lost five consecutive games and is in fourth place in their league, 14 points behind the leader. Sparta Praga has also had mixed results in the Champions League, with one win, one draw and two losses.
Their main danger is the 1,91 meters of Olatunji up front and the imagination of Haraslín in the midfield. Cholo seems to have four clear weapons: Giménez, De Paul and Julián Alvarez, all substitutes against Alavés.
Julián, who is already the team’s top scorer with seven goals, is looking for a great night to put all the rojiblanco at his feet. Atlético Madrid looks to continue its streak and secure its place in the next round of the Champions League.
