The defence remains as solid and stingy as ever, but better movement, pace and a clinical edge has helped considerably in moving Atleti from a tough-to-beat side to one who actively hunt down the victory each time they take to the field. Since the first leg 0-0 draw, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, Valencia and Deportivo La Coruna have been downed in turn, with Atleti conceding just one goal along the way. Denis Doyle/Getty ImagesMost recently, a 3-0 win over Deportivo La Coruna was as impressive as it was deserved, with Saul Niguez, Antoine Griezmann and Angel Correa finding the back of the net. PSV have played a game less and suffered a disappointing 1-1 draw last time out—though their lead at the top of the Eredivisie wasn't affected, as Ajax went and drew their own fixture the next day.
Winning is all that matters in the Champions League, especially in the second leg. PSV should prepare themselves to feel the full force of an in-form Atletico side, but perhaps the rest of the competition should also acknowledge a very real threat who could go on to lift the title.
