Kick-off: November 4, 2025, 20:00 UTC (23:00 MSK) Stadium: Riyadh Air Metropolitano, Madrid Competition: UEFA Champions LeagueAtlético Madrid vs Union Saint-Gilloise: Match Preview
Atlético comes into this match in good form domestically, where Diego Simeone's team has won a series of games and lost only one of their last nine matches in all competitions. However, their Champions League campaign has been inconsistent so far: after three rounds, they have only three points, earned in a home game against Eintracht Frankfurt, alongside two away defeats to Liverpool and Arsenal. Union, making their debut in the Champions League proper, also have three points but are coming off two heavy 4-0 defeats to Inter Milan and Newcastle. This match will be the first-ever official meeting between the clubs.
Team Form and Analysis
Atlético Madrid
Diego Simeone's side is traditionally strong at home. Atlético is unbeaten in their last 11 matches at the Metropolitano, securing 10 wins. In the last La Liga round, the Madrid side convincingly beat Sevilla 3-0. Despite this, the team's performance in the Champions League has lacked consistency. The participation of midfielder Pablo Barrios is in doubt due to a muscle problem.
Union Saint-Gilloise
The Belgian champions are leading their domestic league, demonstrating high scoring form. Since a change of coach (David Hubert replacing Sébastien Pocognoli), the team has won four out of five matches. However, in the Champions League, the debutants have faced stiff competition, resulting in two consecutive heavy defeats. Union will be without injured forward Mohammed Fuseini for this match.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Official lineups will be confirmed one hour before kick-off.
- Atlético Madrid (3-5-2): Oblak; Giménez, Witsel, Hermoso; Llorente, De Paul, Koke, Saúl, Lino; Griezmann, Morata.
- Union Saint-Gilloise (3-4-3): Moris; Mac Allister, Burgess, Sykes; Castro-Montes, Rasmussen, Vanhoutte, Lapoussin; Amoura, Nilsson, Puertas.
Match Prediction by tutsport.net
Atlético Madrid is the clear favorite for this encounter. Their vast experience in the Champions League, powerful performances at home, and superior class should be the key factors. Union is an ambitious debutant, but the team may lack the experience to compete with such a formidable opponent away from home.
- Main Prediction: Atlético Madrid to Win with a (-1.5) Handicap. Considering Union's struggles in their recent Champions League matches and Atlético's fortress-like home form, a comfortable win for the hosts seems highly likely.
- Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Atlético scores a lot at home, and Union has been conceding heavily in recent Champions League games, which sets the stage for a high-scoring match.
