Atalanta Preview – Can Atalanta win four on trot?
Atalanta’s tails will be up ready for their last 16 Champions League 1st leg tie against Real Madrid having won their last three matches on the trot in all competitions which consist of Serie A wins against Cagliari and Napoli along with a Coppa Italia victory over Napoli.
Indeed, the hosts have produced some solid displays over a fair period as Atalanta have suffered just one defeat out of their last 20 matches in all competitions which will give the hosts plenty of confidence for this 1st leg clash at their Gewiss Stadium.
Atalanta have also been consistent on the Champions League stage too as the hosts have lost just two out of their last 12 ties overall, but at home, they’ve managed to win just two of their eight ties played on home turf.
Real Madrid Preview – Can Real Madrid extend winning streak?
Wednesday’s visitors, Real Madrid, will also be in confident mood having won their last four matches on the trot in all competitions, all of which have been collected in the Spanish top flight with victories over Huesca, Getafe, Valencia and Real Valladolid.
However, recent overall results in the Champions League have been inconsistent as Real Madrid have won just three of their last eight ties overall which have come in the shape of wins against Inter Milan (home and away) and M’gladbach, two of the three being at home.
On the road, Real Madrid have won just one of their last four matches while also losing at Manchester City and Shakhtar Donetsk, so this may be a tough trip on Wednesday night.
