Atalanta suffered their third consecutive defeat in the Champions League after a 0:2 loss in Dortmund last week. The team had its moments before that and now needs another one. Atalanta has four consecutive home wins at the domestic level, having beaten Napoli 2:1 at home in Serie A on Sunday. This was their sixth consecutive home match in which they scored at least two goals, and they now need at least that many again.
Dortmund has a two-goal advantage but must be careful, having conceded at least two goals in each of their four away matches in the group stage and winning only one of them. They also conceded two goals on Saturday during their visit to RB Leipzig but managed to secure a 2:2 draw with a late goal. In their last visit to Italian soil, they had a spectacular 4:4 draw against Juventus in September last year.
Prediction: both teams to score, Atalanta to winI believe there are definitely conditions to see goals, even at both ends in the return leg. Both teams score but also concede. Atalanta has been impressive in their recent home matches, and I would try for a home win, even if it ultimately may not be enough to qualify, but above all, both teams to score in the match.
