Aberdeen visits Vicente Calderon in a key match for Atletico

Atletico de Madrid, which had a bye in the second week of the UEFA Cup gr0up stage, returns to the stage of this competition by receiving the visit of Aberdeen (20:45). It’s the first time that these two teams will face each other in a European competition. Javier Aguirre’s team, which drew 3-3 in Moscow against Locomotiv in the first week of play, needs to get the three points to position themselves near the top of the table and take an important step towards qualifying for the next stage. This match is key for the Scottish side, as they’ve already played two games and have only come up with one point. They fell in Greece to Panathinaikos (3-0) and drew at home in the second week against Lokomotiv (1-1). The Atletico fans, who will once again enjoy a European Atletico de Madrid this season, can’t afford to miss this date, especially taking into account that Aberdeen will be cheered on by 3,000 fans who will make the trip.
