Another 90 minutes of football in Bergamo today promises to be a thrilling encounter. A game where uncertainty bedevils the visiting team.
Liverpool, after suffering a shock 3-0 defeat at Anfield in the first leg, will be looking to produce a historic comeback. The Reds will need to win by three clear goals in Bergamo to simply force extra-time. However, their recent form suggests that a recovery is unlikely.
On the other hand, Atalanta will be heading into the second leg with confidence after their devastating display at Anfield. Despite surrendering a two-goal lead within the space of four minutes in their recent 2-2 draw with Hellas Verona, they remain the favourites to win the tie overall.
This match is a must-watch for all football enthusiasts. It will be interesting to see how both teams approach this game and whether Liverpool can turn the tide in their favour.
Head to head; This is the 4th encounter between both sides in UEFA competitions. With Atalanta winning 2 and Liverpool winning just once in the previous 3 games. Gianluca Scammaca was the tormentor-in-chief at Anfield last week, scoring twice.
Predictions: A comeback for Liverpool doesn’t look unlikely, but their recent form has been terrible. Atalanta on the other hand hasn’t been too convincing as well in their recent run of games. Liverpool to win 2-1
