Atletico Madrid started the season with a 2-2 draw away to Villarreal, but then improved, especially defensively. They have not conceded a goal in four consecutive matches and have also recorded good victories with 3-0 over Valencia and Girona in some of those matches. The new addition to the defense, Robert Le Normand, has been quite stable, and the other new names have started to make an impact - Conor Gallagher, Julian Alvarez, and Alex Sorloth.
RB Leipzig also did not concede a goal in two of their three matches in the new season. Overall, they are a tough opponent. They even managed to stop the previously undefeated Bayer Leverkusen, beating them 3-2 away. So it would not be surprising if they make it difficult for their opponents now, even though they are considered underdogs.
Prediction: under 2.5 goalsAtletico shows stability in defense, but RB Leipzig is a tough opponent and I expect them to trouble the hosts. I think it will be difficult to determine a winner in the match and the goals will not be many in the end.
