TUE 29.09.2015
FC Barcelona and Valencia CF opened on Tuesday the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, now it is the turn of the other three Spanish teams, Sevilla FC, Real Madrid CF and Atletico Madrid.
Juventus - Sevilla CF
Both teams want to recoup from their poor league start in the UEFA Champions League. Sevilla will seek its second victory in the European championship. The Andalusian team comes after a shaky start in Liga BBVA, a different reality than in the Champions League, in which debuted with a win against Borussia Monchengladbach. Against Juventus will try to prove its fitness in the competition. Most significant for the team of Emery are the two absences: Fernando Llorente and Vitolo, unfit. Meanwhile, Juventus is in the same situation as Sevilla, as only has five points in six games in the Italian league.

Malmo FF - Real Madrid CF
Real Madrid has to face its second Champions´ test. In the first round could not make better note; 4-0 to Shakhtar Donetsk . Rafa Benitez's team travels to Sweden with notable absences as Sergio Ramos, James Rodriguez, Gareth Bale and Pepe, although Jesse is back on the call, who has overcome the inconvenience suffered in the last match of Liga BBVA. Malmo will try to cause an upset against Real Madrid, so said the coach of the Swedish team: "Real Madrid is very tough at the Bernabeu, but there the fans are far away from the pitch. In Malmoe they are very, very close. That will surprise them".

Atlético de Madrid - SL Benfica
Simeone's team will face one of the stronger opponents. Vicente Calderon stadium will host a pulse for the lead in Group C, featuring Angel Correa in the starting lineup. Both teams won their respective matches in the first round of the Champions group stage and the two share the same position on the table. Atlético will face Benfica without Koke, who is still injured. Benfica, unlike the Madrid side, comes from winning its last game of the Primeira Liga and wants to confirm its good run in the capital.
