Diego Simeone has only picked up two points in three matches. This year, we're watching what may be the worst Atletico Madrid of recent years. Judging by their results in three matches, this match is risky. They drew with Elche and Alaves and lost to Espanyol. Villarreal is a stronger team on paper than these two. Therefore, this match will be very difficult, but I'm sure the manager, aware of this, will have prepared his players thoroughly.
If so, then I know who I'm betting on when Atletico Madrid visits Anfield to play against a Liverpool soon...
