Atletico Madrid will host Feyenoord on Match Day 2 of the UEFA Champions League. This Group E game finds Feyenoord top with three points and Atletico second on one. Atletico suffered a late setback on Match Day 1, conceding in stoppage time to draw 1-1 with Lazio. After that they’ve been on a fine run, winning all three matches that followed. Atletico however still need to work on their defending, having conceded in four of their last five matches. They’ve however failed to score in just one of their last five matches. Both teams have scored in three of their last four games. In the last three matches, they scored at least two goals, the most recent a 3-2 win over Cadiz. Over 2.5 goals has been a common stat in their recent matches too. Having trounced Real Madrid 3-1 along the way, Atletico will be very confident coming into this game.

Feyenoord will also bring into this game a high scoring run in their matches. Coming into this one, they beat Go Ahead Eagles 3-1. That made it seven straight matches in which they scored at least two goals. four of their last five matches have returned over 2.5 goals. Like Atletico, Feyenoord may consider working on their defence. They have just two clean sheets in their last seven matches. With six straight wins coming into this game, Feyenoord will also be confident of getting something from this game. The Dutch champions may just be motivated to go for a win to add on their opening day victory. They beat Celtic 2-0 on Match Day 1 to mark their Champions League return on a high. That was also their first clean sheet in 14 Champions League matches.
