FC Astana offer Fernando Torres a great chance to roll back the years

"Since returning to the Champions League in 2013, Diego Simeone's men are W9-D2-L1 at the Vicente Calderon, with clean sheets in seven of the last eight"

Back Atletico Madrid -2.0 @ -2.5 on the Asian Handicap @ 1.865/6 v FC Astana

The Mattress Makers have a fine European home record and Tobias Gourlay reckons they can rest easy ahead of their latest assignment

Atletico Madrid v FC Astana
Wednesday 19:45

A small win on the Champions League last night, as Porto despatched Maccabi Tel Aviv 2-0.

We're hoping for an even more dominant performance from Atletico Madrid this evening.

Since returning to the Champions League in 2013, Diego Simeone's men are W9-D2-L1 at the Vicente Calderon, with clean sheets in seven of the last eight.

Taking group-stage games alone, the Mattress Makers have won 6/7. The margin of victory was at least two goals in 5/6 wins and at least three in 3/6.

FC Astana have never made it to this stage of the competition before. Their first away game brought a 2-0 defeat at Benfica and they'll be luck to escape with nothing worse than that tonight.
