Atalanta vs Liverpool preview and betting tips for Thursday’s Europa League second-leg battle from Bergamo.
Springing what was a stunning Europa League upset last week as they eventually left Anfield with a famous 3-0 romp, La Dea are now firmly sat in the driving seat to punch an iconic Europa League semi-final spot here.

Atalanta vs Liverpool Prediction
Although Atalanta might have shown some extended domestic inconsistencies this season, La Dea have continued on a famous Europa League flurry. Making what was an astonishing first-leg statement at Anfield last week as they eventually left the red half of Merseyside with a remarkable 3-0 romp, the Italian outfit will certainly be relishing a return to Bergamo here. Looking to officially collect what would be an iconic Europa League scalp, Atalanta have gained a reputation for their success on home soil. In fact, Thursday’s hosts have suffered just a single defeat from any of their previous 12 consecutive appearances at the Gewiss Stadium across all competitions.
While Liverpool might have opened the New Year with their sights set on completing a famous treble-winning campaign, Jurgen Klopp’s men are enduring a public recent wobble. Blown away at Anfield last week as they eventually slumped to that infamous 3-0 drumming, the former Borussia Dortmund boss has seen his squad suffer back-to-back defeats for the first time this season. Failing to pick up any kind of momentum over the weekend and watching their
Premier League title ambitions take a major dent following a 1-0 loss at the hands of Crystal Palace, Liverpool have also shown some extended defensive issues on either side of March’s international break.
