Arsenal vs Atletico Madrid Match Overview – 21.10.2025

It’s time for another big game from the Champions League because Arsenal will host Atletico Madrid at the Emirates in London. This is a match from the third round of the competition’s league stage. Arsenal are looking for a third consecutive win in the tournament while Atletico will try to win for a second time.

In their last Champions League game Arsenal hosted Olympiakos at home and secured a 2-0 win in the English capital. Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka guaranteed the win for the Gunners at their own ground.

Atletico Madrid did a magnificent job in their last Champions League game as they hosted Eintracht Frankfurt at home and secured a stunning 5-1 win. It was probably Atletico’s best win in all competitions since the beginning of the campaign.

Arsenal News & Analysis

Arsenal’s manager Mikel Arteta has some problems with injured players before hosting Atletico Madrid. Martin Zubimendi and Ben White are absent from training while the captain Martin Odegaard is out until November. Kai Havertz and Noni Madueke remain sidelined as well – they are not available.

Some good news for Arsenal is the form of the Spanish international Mikel Merino. He scored a brace for La Roja during the 4-0 win against Bulgaria. Merino now has six goals in four matches in the World Cup qualifiers. This makes him a strong contender to start against Atletico Madrid as well.

Atletico Madrid News & Analysis

Atletico Madrid’s performance since the beginning of the season is not what the fans expected, but the 5-1 win against Eintracht brought some hope back to the fans. Now it’s up to the manager Diego Simeone to keep those levels – his team showed everyone that playing good football is possible.

Julian Alvarez remains Atleti’s most impressive player. The Argentine international has scored 7 goals in just 9 games for Los Colchoneros in all competitions. His pace, dribbling ability and killer instinct could cause some trouble to Arsenal on Tuesday.
