Atalanta is coming into this match not playing in great form recently as they only have 1 win in their last 6 matches. They are down 2-1 on aggregate from the 1st leg away from home, but they have been a very different team in Champions League this season. They finished 9th in the table, just missing out on the top 8, and they have some impressive results from the League Phase. They are also the Europa League champions from last season so they have some experience making a deep run in a competition like this. They are going up against a Club Brugge team that has been in better form recently as they have won 2 of their last 3 matches with no losses in that span, but they have not been that good away from home. They are coming off of a 2-2 away draw in their last match and they have lost 2 of their last 4 matches with no wins in that span. They have not been good away from home in this competition either, losing 2 of their last 3 away matches in Champions League with no wins in that span and both of those losses coming by 2 goals. Club Brugge was able to escape the 1st leg at home with a 2-1 lead after scoring the winning goal in the 94th min, but Atalanta has a lot more quality in their squad and this will be the match where they turn it up as they have played much harder in this competition. They are going to be pushing to win this match at home as they need to win to stay alive, but they will not stop at a 1 goal lead as they have a chance to avoid extra time and advance with a win by 2+ goals. Atalanta will win this match at home, take Atalanta -1 here.
