Atlético de Madrid hosts Bayern Munich at the Metropolitano in Champions League

Television and Streaming Details for Atlético de Madrid vs. Bayern Munich

The UEFA Champions League returns to the Metropolitano on Tuesday, November 3, with Atlético de Madrid hosting Bayern Munich in a marquee fourth-round league phase fixture. Kickoff is scheduled for 21:00 local time in Madrid (20:00 in the Canary Islands), ABC reported.

Viewers in Spain can watch the match live on television through Liga de Campeones por M+ on dial 7 and Orange TV. Streaming coverage is available online via the Movistar Plus+ application. The match can also be followed live on the website of ABC, where a complete post-match report will be published.

League Phase Standings and Domestic Form Contrast

Both clubs enter the fixture looking to solidify their positions in the single league phase table, where the top eight finishers advance directly to the Round of 16 and teams finishing from ninth to 24th enter a preliminary playoff round. Bayern Munich currently sits 14th in the standings with five points after three matches, while Atlético de Madrid occupies 16th place with four points from one win, one draw, and one defeat.

Simeone’s squad enters the contest riding a nine-match unbeaten streak in LaLiga, featuring eight wins and a draw, most recently defeating Levante 2-0. Their European campaign, however, has proven more complicated, making the home fixture an opportunity to shift momentum. Meanwhile, Bayern arrives in Madrid on the back of consecutive European draws—3-3 against Viking and 2-2 against Arsenal—alongside a 2-2 draw in the Bundesliga against Dortmund.

Alvarez Leads Attack as Injuries Hit Squads

Atlético will rely on Julián Álvarez as their primary offensive reference. Álvarez has scored 26 goals in 45 appearances in Europe’s top club competition. Johnny Cardoso remains sidelined for the hosts due to injury.

Bayern travels to the Spanish capital with a severely depleted squad. The side is missing Saibari, who underwent surgery for a torn ankle ligament, and Gnabry due to a muscular injury. Musiala and Luis Díaz are also unavailable, while Olise remains under medical observation and is doubtful to start. On the bench, Kompany’s status for the match remains uncertain after illness forced him to miss the team’s previous fixture, where Aaron Danks took charge.

For the visitors, attention centers on Harry Kane, who has scored in each of his last ten Champions League appearances for the Bavarian club.

Historical Precedents at the Metropolitano

Statistical history favors the hosts ahead of Tuesday’s clash. Atlético de Madrid has never lost at home against Bayern Munich in Europe’s premier club competition, holding a record of two wins and one draw across previous encounters at their stadium.
