Arsenal vs Atletico Madrid form

Heavy investments in personnel are helping Arsenal thrive. Thanks to the increase in both quality and depth of the squad, The Gunners have moved forward strongly from the starting line and are ready to compete in every arena they participate in.

In the Premier League, the team under the direction of coach Mikel Arteta is in the top position after 8 rounds. Currently, the Gunners have 19 points, 3 and 4 points more than the two big rivals in the championship race, Man City and Liverpool, respectively.

Declan Rice and his teammates are in high spirits at the moment. Last weekend, thanks to a win away at Craven Cottage against Fulham, the North London giants extended their winning streak to 5 matches.

In addition to the ability to "shoot" regularly, a solid defense system is also becoming a very important support on Arsenal's journey to conquer glory. After 11 appearances since the beginning of the season in all arenas, the Emirates team has only conceded 3 goals, no team in the top European leagues has such impressive defensive parameters.

In the Champions League, Arsenal also had a perfect start. In both matches against Athletic Bilbao and Olympiacos, Arteta and his team won 2-0, thereby temporarily standing in 5th place on the rankings.

If they can get 3 more points in the match against Atletico Madrid, the Gunners have a very good chance of finishing in the top 8 and getting a ticket straight to the round of 16. Because in the remaining 5 matches, the Premier League representative will only have to face 2 tough opponents, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich.

With impressive performances since the start of the season, Arsenal are now no longer afraid of any opponent. If they just improve their attacking ability on the front line a little bit, and their key players do not get injured or decline, the Gunners will still be difficult to beat at least until the end of the first leg.

Atletico Madrid can be considered one of the tough opponents for the Emirates team in the remaining journey in October, along with Crystal Palace and Brighton. However, home advantage and more stable form still help Arteta and his team have more than enough confidence.

Atletico Madrid have impressed with magnificent victories against Real Madrid (5-2) or Eintracht Frankfurt (5-1) but overall, those were matches where Diego Simeone's team played at home.

Atletico Madrid’s home-field dominance has not resulted in them achieving the expected position in both La Liga and the Champions League. In all five away games since the start of the season, the away team has not won a single game, drawing three and losing two.
