REVEALED: The worrying Atletico Madrid omen for Manchester City... Diego Simeone's side have never lost a Champions League tie after losing the first leg by one goal

Even though the Atletico Madrid dressing room will have been a somber place on Tuesday night, Diego Simeone's men have reason to be cheerful.

Manchester City, however, will know the Spanish side are a dangerous wounded animal with one particular omen in their favour.

Atletico trail 1-0 going into the Champions League quarter-final second leg but have never lost a tie in the competition when suffering a defeat of that margin.
