Atletico Madrid welcome Frankfurt to the Metropolitano on Tuesday night, as the hosts look to get off the mark in Europe. Diego Simeone’s men were narrowly beaten 3-2 at Anfield in round one of the Champions League, while The Eagles were clinical in their 5-1 victory over Galatasaray on home turf. However, the visitors face an intimidating trip to Madrid, and they come in as underdogs.

📈 Atletico Madrid v Eintracht Frankfurt Form & Tactics

Prior to last weekend, Real Madrid had conceded just three goals from their six league matches, boasting a flawless record of six wins from six. Xabi Alonso’s men had so far looked imperious, but they were humbled after making the short trip to the Metropolitano, losing 5-2.

Atletico Madrid managed just 13 shots, but they were worth 2.31 xG, as the hosts were able to cut through Real Madrid at will and carve out some fantastic chances. Sorloth was physically dominant against the Los Blancos centre-back pairing, while Atletico were aggressive in midfield. Real Madrid were restricted to just six shots, worth a measly 0.58 xG.

Frankfurt were also involved in a thriller at the weekend, as they were absolutely cruising at one stage, going into the break five goals up. But they almost somehow allowed the hosts back into the game - Monchengladbach scored three goals within a ten-minute spell, and the visitors had to resort to wasting time late on.

Still, Frankfurt come into this match in good form, sitting fourth in the Bundesliga with nine points from their opening five matches. Only Bayern Munich have scored more goals than the Eagles this term, who have looked impressive going forward, but the same cannot be said for their defence. With 13 league goals conceded, only Werder Bremen have been more permeable in the Bundesliga.

📔 Atletico Madrid v Eintracht Frankfurt Formation & Team News

After suffering a muscle injury just after the international break, Nathaniel Brown has been given the opportunity to start at left back, as Arthur Theate has shifted into centre back, and Nnamdi Collins into right back. Dino Toppomoller is likely to stick with a similar defensive setup on Tuesday night.

Ellyes Skhiri made his first start of the season at the weekend, and is in contention to retain his place in the midfield double pivot after playing the full 90 minutes. Having scored in each of his last six matches in all competitions, Can Uzun is almost certain to start in an advanced midfield position, and is a player to keep tabs on.

Julian Alvarez was absent at Anfield due to injury, but looks set to make his first Champions League start of the season after his excellent performance in the Madrid derby. Diego Simeone has a deep squad of players to choose from, so we could see some rotation midweek.

Conor Gallagher will be pushing for his fourth start of the season, while Alex Baena will also be hoping for some minutes, having recovered from injury to make a brief appearance off the bench against Real Madrid.
