Atlético Madrid vs Manchester United: Match Preview

Last season in Spain’s Liga F, Atlético Madrid finished third with 58 points, seven ahead of the fourth-placed team. They earned their Champions League spot through qualification, where they defeated Häcken 3–2 on aggregate. The Madrid side have also started the new domestic season strongly, collecting 14 points from seven rounds to sit third in the table. However, their most recent outing ended in a heavy 0–6 defeat to Barcelona. Despite that setback, Atlético opened their Champions League campaign in style, crushing St. Pölten 6–0.

Manchester United, like Atlético, finished third in last season’s Women’s Super League, edging the fourth-placed team by just one point. They currently occupy the same position in the ongoing campaign, sitting third with 14 points from six matches — only two points behind the leaders. In Champions League qualification, United saw off Brann 3–1 on aggregate. Their start to this season’s European campaign has also been positive, earning a narrow 1–0 victory over Vålerenga.
