Atlético Madrid vs. Bayer Leverkusen live stream: How to watch 2017 Champions League online

This season has been a struggle for Bayer Leverkusen, wracked with disappointing results, inconsistent form, and frustrating injuries, but they have a chance to give themselves a significant boost on Tuesday. With Atlético Madrid coming to the BayArena for the start of their Champions League Round of 16 tie, a big win for Bayer could be just what they need to get things back on the right foot again.

Bayer’s hopes are buoyed by their recent positive form, which has seen them win two straight matches and three out of five since the Bundesliga came back from its winter break. With Atlético spinning their wheels a bit in La Liga of late, that could be just the opening Bayer need to punch above their weight a little bit and steal an upset in this tie, starting with an excellent performance and big win in this match.

Of course, that’s easier said than done, especially against a team led by a manager like Diego Simeone. Atlético are always going to be prepared and ready for what Bayer have to bring to bear, and they’re a side that will always work that little bit harder and run that extra mile to get the job done. They’re never going to be an easy team to take down in a tie like this, and Bayer will have to be excellent indeed to get something out of this match.
