Atlético de Madrid are 90 minutes from returning to the UEFA Champions League semifinals for the first time in nine years.
After securing a 2-0 win at Camp Nou last Wednesday, Atlético are back at the Metropolitano, where Diego Simeone’s side never has lost a knockout game in the Champions League. In fact, Atleti have not lost at home in a Champions League knockout match since Ajax put the Rojiblancos out of the competition in 1997.
