THE PREDICTION

An intriguing first leg clash is on the cards between these two sides in Bergamo. Currently sat second-place in the Bundesliga off the back of a 1-1 draw away at Bayern Munich and having topped their Europa League group with 13 points from six matches, Bayer Leverkusen have all the credentials to be considered a potential winner of the tournament. However, in Atalanta they face a club who reached the Champions League quarter-finals in 2020 and have established themselves as one of the most exciting teams in Europe offensively under Gian Piero Gasperini. In fact, each of these two sides are renowned for their attacking prowess and with no away goal rule in play this should lead to an entertaining contest. Regardless of who comes out on top, both teams to score has to be favoured, as does over 2.5 goals.
