Current Form
Liverpool lost their last two games. They are currently in third place in the Premier League. They have the same number of points as Arsenal, but the goal difference is worse, so that is why they are sitting in 3rd place. The last game they played was against Crystal Palace. The Reds lost against Crystal Palace, which was one of the biggest upsets this season. With that loss, the Reds dropped to third place. Their chances at winning another Premier League title are slim right now, considering how well City are playing. Manchester City is also out of the Champions League, so they can concentrate now on the Premier League. It is hard to explain their two recent losses. Liverpool needs to attack from the very start, if they want to have a chance of getting into the semifinals. Luckily, the Reds have a history of great European comebacks, so we can expect them to have a chance tonight. We all remember how they won last time in Bergamo 5-0 against Atalanta. The Reds are creating great chances, but their realization is just terrible. Who knows, maybe Jürgen Klopp will look for another attacking option tonight.
Atalanta drew in their last game against Verona, 2-2. Before that, Atalanta played against Liverpool in the first leg of the Europa League. They won 3-0 as the big underdogs. We also have to say that they were just the better team in that matchup. Atalanta are just 2 points above Lazio and Napoli and 4 points behind AS Roma in the Serie A. However, they have played one game less than Lazio and Napoli. They are one of the best teams in the Europa League. They have only ever lost three of their 29 games in the competition. All those results came under Gian Piero Gasperini, who had been their head coach for a while. After winning Group D, Atalanta continued their winning run against Sporting with a 3-2 aggregate win.
Best Bet to Make
We believe that Atalanta will just try to keep their 1st leg lead. Expect Liverpool to dominate from the very start. Do not fool yourself to think that the Europa League is not important to Liverpool. Jürgen Klopp has already said that he will leave at the end of the season, and believe us that they will try and make the most of it. We are not sure if Liverpool can pull off the comeback. However, we strongly believe that they will win tonight.
That being said, Liverpool winning is a value bet.
