Atletico may have enjoyed their own ups and downs on either side of the October international break, but the Spanish giants will be well aware that they will face a tough test on Tuesday night.

Arsenal looking to take heavyweight’s scalp
Arsenal may have suffered further domestic heartbreak last season as they had to settle for another silver medal among England’s elite teams, but this time around the Gunners are now widely regarded as outstanding title contenders.
Arteta’s side, with their eyes firmly set on winning the Premier League for the first time since 2004, are in the midst of a sensational purple patch.
Arsenal are riding a huge wave of momentum as their Champions League adventure begins with back-to-back 2-0 wins against Athletic Bilbao and Olympiakos.
The hosts, who returned from a two-week break in October with a 1-0 away win at local rivals Fulham on Tuesday, have won their last five appearances by an aggregate score of 9-1 in all competitions.
He will be hoping to extend his 100% start and establish himself as an outstanding candidate here, but it should also be highlighted that Arsenal have only had one shot from open play so far this season.
Bet Builder Tip: Arsenal Win @ 3/5 and 1x bet
Atletico Madrid may have entered the new season in the midst of a public struggle, but Diego Simeone’s side certainly hit a real turning point either side of the October international break.
Tuesday’s guest, who made his return from a two-week break with a 1-0 home win against Osasuna, has scored 13 goals in his last five appearances in all competitions.

Atletico started their Champions League adventure with a final heartbreak, losing 3-2 to Liverpool at Anfield, but have failed to win any of their first five away games (two losses, three draws).
Similarly, Simeone’s side, whose only Champions League win on foreign soil so far this year, will be well aware that they will face a heavyweight challenge in north London on Tuesday night.
