Madrid: A high soaring Liverpool will test themselves as they visit Wands Metropolitano to be hosted by Atlético Madrid on the third match day of the group stage of UEFA Champions League. The same night, Real Madrid will visit Shakhtar Donetsk hoping to bounce back to winning ways.
A hat-trick and a assist from Roberto Firmino saw Liverpool cruise past Watford as Mohammed Salah established himself as one the best players currently. The trio of Firmino, Salah and Sadio Mané will be tested once again as they take on defending La Liga Champions Atlético Madrid at Wanda Metropolitano anticipating to hold their dominant form in the Europe. With an underwhelming draw against Porto and a narrow victory against AC Milan, Atlético Madrid sit second in the Group B table, while with wins against Porto and AC Milan, Liverpool sit at the top.
The same time, elsewhere at NSC Olympiyskiy, Real Madrid will be facing Shakhtar Donetsk, who had caused problems to the Spanish Giants previously. The 13 times Champions League winners would look forward to bounce to winning ways after registering two back to back losses with FC Sheriff and Espanyol.
Paris Saint-Germain on the other hand will be without Neymar Jr as they face RB Leipzig who will be determined for a win after a loss at the hands of Club Brugge.
However Club Brugge will have to be steady as they host Manchester City at home earlier the same day.
