At number 3 we have Spanish giants, Atletico Madrid. La Rojiblancos are known for their solid defence and the club has only conceded 5 goals this season.

The Madrid based club is currently at the 4th position in LaLiga with 5 wins, 4 draws and only 1 loss. Their main man Diego Godin is the chief of the defence. The Uruguayan International is also the captain of the team.

He along with Savic and Jose Gimenez have successfully kept opposition attackers quiet. If Atletico Madrid wants to win the league this season then their defensive line will play a big role for them. However, in this case, this team needs to attack a bit so as to get positive results from their ties.


#2. Liverpool

Liverpool has conceded just 4 goals in the Premier League

At number 2 we have Liverpool. The English Premier League club is currently the joint league leader with Manchester City both the clubs have 26 points. Liverpool has won 8 matches this season and 3 matches ended on equal terms for them.

Liverpool is among the three teams in England's top flight which have not lost a match till now this season, Manchester City and Chelsea being the other two. The Reds have only conceded 4 goals this season.

Their new signing Alisson Becker has performed brilliantly for them. The Centre back duo of Virgil Van Dijk and Joe Gomez has kept the mighty attackers of the Premier League quiet against them.

However, even after shipping just 4 goals they are not the side with the best defensive record this season.
