Atalanta vs Borussia Dortmund Preview

Atalanta were just minutes away from claiming a draw in the first leg of this crucial tie, but the late goal by Michy Batshuayi gave Dortmund the slight advantage. The Italian side can be happy with the two away goals that they got though, which gives them a great chance of going through.

Gian Piero Gasperini has no injuries to worry about so he is likely to play his strongest possible side, as progressing in the Europa League is a priority for them. Players such as Hans Hateboer, Josip Ilicic, Rafael Tolói and Leonardo Spinazzola are likely to return to the starting 11. Andrea Masiello and Ilicic are on the verge of a ban so they will hope to not receive a yellow card.

Borussia Dortmund had to work extremely hard to come away from the first leg with a one goal advantage. Michy Batshuayi has been a fantastic signing for Dortmund and they don’t seem to have missed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at all since his move to Arsenal. Coming from 2-1 down on the night to win 3-2 showed their fighting spirit.

There are plenty of players missing for the German side. Julian Weigl is suspended for Borussia Dortmund after picking up a booking in the first leg, with Mahmoud Dahoud or Nuri Sahin taking his place in the side. Manuel Akanji is ineligible in the Europa League so will play no part. Andriy Yarmolenko, Sebastian Rode, Maximilian Philipp and Erik Durm are definitely out, with Marcel Schmelzer, Jadon Sancho and Raphael Guerreiro all doubful.

Atalanta vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction

Atalanta can certainly be proud of their performance in the first leg and even though they lost the match, they are still in a very strong position thanks to claiming 2 away goals. Their home form is not amazing though, as they have lost three of their last five at home.

Borussia Dortmund are on very good form and are unbeaten in seven matches and have won their last four in a row. In terms of away matches, they are unbeaten in their last three. Things have been looking up recently for Dortmund and they will fancy their chances here.

Atalanta followed up the first leg with a 1-1 draw against Fiorentina in Serie A on Sunday while Borussia Dortmund beat Borussia Monchengladbach 1-0 away from home which was a big victory for them. Atalanta are 8th in Serie A at the moment while Dortmund sit 2nd in the Bundesliga.

Just like the first leg, this is expected to be a very close contest. The 91st minute winner for Dortmund may prove to be the difference, as our tip is for a draw after 90 minutes in this game.

So, Borussia Dortmund have a 100% winning record in competitive fixtures against Atalanta with one win from one. The 3-2 win came courtesy of goals from Andre Schurrle and two from Michy Batshuayi. Josip Ilicic got both of Atalanta’s goals.
