Liverpool vs Atlético de Madrid Preview
Liverpool's start to the Premier League season has been rough under Andoni Iraola, with the Reds sitting 11th after collecting just two points from two matches. Their recent form across all competitions reads poorly: four consecutive draws followed by a defeat. Federico Chiesa misses out with a back muscle injury picked up in pre-season, and Joe Gomez is sidelined for several weeks. New signing Bradley Barcola could feature, but Anfield needs a performance to lift the mood.
Atlético de Madrid arrive in better shape after a convincing 3-1 win over Sevilla in their most recent outing. Diego Simeone's side have won three of their last five matches across all competitions, a solid foundation heading into European action. However, their away record in the Champions League warrants caution. The Rojiblancos were famously eliminated Liverpool from this competition in 2019-20, but Anfield has since become a fortress against them, with Liverpool winning all three subsequent home meetings.
Liverpool's domestic form is a concern, with four draws and a defeat across their last five outings. However, Anfield under the Champions League lights is a different proposition entirely. The Reds have won their last three home European meetings against Atlético, including a thrilling 3-2 victory during the 2025/26 league phase. That home pedigree makes the 1X selection a solid pick at 1.72.
Atlético arrive in strong recent form, beating Sevilla 3-1 in their latest outing, but their European away record tells a cautionary tale. Diego Simeone's side are winless in four consecutive away Champions League fixtures. Federico Chiesa and Joe Gomez are both sidelined for Liverpool, yet the hosts still possess enough firepower with new signing Bradley Barcola adding depth to the attacking options.
The value here sits with the double chance covering a Liverpool win or draw. Bookmakers price the home win at 1.72 and the draw at 4.00, both outcomes we expect to be in play given Atlético's struggles on the road in Europe. Under 2.5 goals at N/A also deserves consideration given Liverpool's recent run of tight, low-scoring league results.
