Head coach of Roma Eusebio Di Francesco admitted that he was surprised by the weak indicators of Atletico in the current Champions League.

"Obviously, winning the derby over Lazio is a great achievement for us, because we won an important match. But now we are completely focused on the upcoming meeting, "- said Di Francesco.

"We have to play against an excellent team with a successful experience in Europe. We have little right to make a mistake, but we do not take anything for granted ".

"I've seen some of the last matches of Atletico and I expect that tomorrow they will be aggressive and fight for their lives in this tournament. They have a very strong line-up and play very hard in their stadium. We must act wisely and stick to our game ".

"I think this is a decisive match.

We need to win to leave the group, especially if we want to take first place. I will choose the strongest ".

"Honestly, I did not expect that Atletico will score only two points (Atletico scored three points -. ) at this stage, but we only follow ourselves. We are good at our work and could even beat Chelsea on the road ".

The match of the group stage of the Champions League between Atletico and Roma will be held on Wednesday, November 22. The beginning of the meeting at 21:45 Kiev time.
