PSV vs Atlético Madrid Preview, prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA Champions League 2025-26

The Boeren have failed to secure a win in their last five meetings against Atleti.

PSV Eindhoven are all set to lock horns with Atlético Madrid for their round 6 league phase contest of the UEFA Champions League 2025-26 edition. This is going to be an entertaining outing, which will take place at the Philips Stadion.

The Eredivisie side will be at home. They have been in top form lately.

PSV Eindhoven are doing really well in the domestic competitions. Moreover, they dominated the proceedings against Liverpool in their previous UCL fixture and will be looking to continue their run going forward.

Atletico de Madrid are going to be under pressure from the start due to their last two performances in the LaLiga. They first lost to FC Barcelona and then fell prey to Athletic Club Bilbao.

This dip in form can be concerning for the Diego Simeone-led side. Even though they came out on top against Inter Milan in their previous UEFA Champions League outing, the upcoming game can prove to be a tough one for them.
