Preview:
Atletico Madrid head into this after being held to a goalless draw against Club Brugge at home on MD 4 of the UEFA Champions League.
The point sent them to 3rd place with 4 points from as many matches. However, they are still within grasp of qualification but need to win their remaining matches.
Anything less and they will have to settle for a place in the Europa League or nothing at all if they finish bottom.
On the other hand, Leverkusen’s hopes of qualification were dented with a 3-0 loss to Porto at home on MD 4.
The loss was their 3rd of the group stage as they stay bottom of the table with 4 points as well.
Not only do they possess a negative goal difference but need to play out of their skins in the remaining matches to stay alive in the competition. Hence, there is plenty to play for both teams in this massive fixture.
Both teams last met on MD 2, where Leverkusen won 2-0 at home.
