Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone believes Leicester City are similar to his team as he prepares for a “complex” Champions League second leg.
The LaLiga giants carry a 1-0 lead to the King Power Stadium on Tuesday as they look to reach the semi-finals.
Simeone said there were plenty of similarities between his team and Leicester, the Premier League champions who have recovered from a poor start to the season.
“Leicester depend on the details, as we also depend on the details,” the Argentinian told a news conference on Monday.
“It’s a well-worked and defensively balanced team and we are also similar like that. So it’s an evenly-matched and complex qualifier.”
Leicester are on a three-match winless run ahead of the clash, while Atletico are unbeaten in their past 10 outings.
