Sparta Prague, the Czech Republic's sole representative in the Champions League, has collected 4 points in this elite competition and has made quite a good impression so far. However, they've failed to secure a victory in their last 4 national league matches, which has led to a significant 14-point gap behind Slavia Prague. In their latest league fixture, they drew 1-1 at home against Teplice.
Atletico Madrid has been in superb form over the past few weeks, winning their last 5 matches. However, their Champions League campaign hasn't been quite as successful. Nevertheless, their away victory against PSG served as good compensation for their losses against Lille and Benfica. Atletico Madrid currently sits in 3rd place in LaLiga, behind Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Sparta Prague vs Atletico Madrid pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
Sparta struggling for goals at home lately, now facing one of Europe's most organized defensive units. Atletico Madrid under Simeone traditionally play a controlled, possession-based game with strong emphasis on defensive stability. After their recent minimal win against Mallorca, expect similar tactical approach here - tight defense, controlled possession, looking to secure a result even if it's just by one goal. Under 2.5 Goals looks like the smart play here. Both teams' recent form and tactical approach suggest a low-scoring affair.
Sparta Prague team news
The hosts are dealing with a lengthy injury list ahead of this crucial Champions League clash. Five players are definitely ruled out, including key man Birmancevic with a groin issue, while both Garcia and Preciado are sidelined with knee problems. Cobbaut is nursing a hamstring injury, and Zeleny will also miss the match. Additionally, both Haraslin and Krasniqi remain questionable and will face late fitness tests before the game.
