Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Bayer Leverkusen vs Atalanta
It was an eventful match in the first leg in Bergamo as Leverkusen took the lead within 11 minutes from the start. However, the home side hit back with three goals and looked to be heading for a comfortable lead.
Nonetheless, Moussa Diaby cut the Italinas’ lead to one and made it a bit easier for his team in the second leg. With the away goals rule removed, Die Werkself need to win by a two-goal margin something they did twice in the EL this season and ten times in the Bundesliga.
Atalanta meanwhile are not in their best form having dropped to sixth place from the fourth in Serie A. To point out, La Dea won two of their last six away games but won their three games in the Europa League after being eliminated from the Champions League.
Boss Gasperini knows it won’t be easy to play a Leverkusen side who have a very solid attack. On the positive side for La Dea, they conceded just under one goal per game while playing on the road in their last ten games. Hence, Gasperini will urge his team maintains that kind of defensive form.
Bayer Leverkusen vs Atalanta Prediction
One thing is for sure, we expect to see a lot of goals in this game. Obviously, Leverkusen are one of the better teams in the Bundesliga this season and their confidence is high which will push them to go for a win here.
Atalanta need a draw which can be a very dangerous strategy to play for if Gasperini adopts it. Hence, we predict a home win or a draw and we will combine it with over 1.5 goals since both teams have very strong attacking lineups.
Safe Bet
There is a 70% chance for both teams to score in this game according to the statistics. To justify, Leverkusen’s 90& overall games in the Europa League and ten of their last 11 games in all competitions saw goals at both ends. With odds of 1.53, we will back BTTS to happen in this game.
Quick Rich
Bayer Leverkusen matches have a very high percentage of scored goals this season. To illustrate, the average number of goals scored in Leverkusen’s games this season is 4.40 and 4.75 at home. Notably, over four goals in this match have odds of 3.55 at Vbet, we consider this a good option for a quick profit.
Bayer Leverkusen vs Atalanta First Goalscorer
Moussa Diaby is one of the most prolific scorers for Leverkusen. In fact, the Frenchman scored 16 goals this season, 12 in the Bundesliga and four in the Europa League. In addition, Diaby proved that he’s a team player by assisting in nine of his teammates’ goals. Thus, we predict Diaby to be the first goalscorer on Thursday.
