Atalanta Preview – Can Atalanta make final push?
There’s everything to play for as 3rd placed Atalanta look to grab an important and crucial three points when they play host to Midtjylland at their Gewiss Stadium as they sit level on points with 2nd placed Ajax and just two points adrift of Group D leaders, Liverpool.
The hosts however, do head into this crucial clash without a win in their last three matches in all competitions following draws with Inter Milan and Spezia in the domestic Serie A and also a 2-0 defeat on the weekend to Hellas Verona which should serve as a wake-up call for Gian Gasperini’s side.
Switch to Champions League though and Atalanta have lost just one of their four group matches to date while also picking up wins against Midtjylland 4-0 away and a 2-0 win at Anfield against Liverpool.
Midtjylland Preview – Can Midtjylland spoil hosts plans?
Basement dwellers, Midtjylland, have found themselves playing the role of ‘whipping boys’ in Group D as the Danish outfit have lost all four of their matches to date including a 4-0 rout at the hands of Atalanta at home in their previous clash against their Italian visitors.
Following defeats against Liverpool and home and away against Dutch club, Ajax, it’s been a miserable campaign for the visitors and one to forget as they look to at least get on the board with perhaps a draw here.
However, it looks like they’ll have their work cut out in Italy on Tuesday night as they’ve managed just one win out of their last five away ties at this level.
