Where to watch Liverpool vs Atalanta?

Liverpool will play their quarter-final against Atalanta on Thursday 11 April at Anfield. The opening kick-off of the entire double-header is set for 21:00.

Liverpool lost their last home game to Real Madrid

The current season has been a dream come true for the departing Jurgen Klopp. Winning the Carabao Cup and still having hopes of a domestic title and Europa League. Only in the FA Cup have the Anfield team’s hopes of winning been dashed by Manchester United. If there is one thing Liverpool are good at, it’s home games. It’s been a year since their last competitive defeat! On 15 March last year, Liverpool lost 2-5 at home to Real Madrid and have been unbeaten at home ever since. An absolutely sensational statistic.

The biggest threat to the Italian opponent will be none other than Mohamed Salah together with Darwin Nunez. The Egyptian saved a draw at Old Trafford from a penalty kick at the weekend. The Uruguayan failed to score despite several great opportunities.

Atalanta try to save their season

A few years ago, this Italian club was one of the most attractive teams in all of Europe. However, a few years have passed since then and the struggles of the Champions League have turned into struggles for any European competition. Moreover, coach Gasperini’s team is struggling at the moment. Out of the last 6 matches Atalanta have won only once, 0: 3 on the ground of soulless Napoli. Last week, the team failed to beat Fiorentina in the first semi-final match of the Italian Cup. This weekend’s loss to Cagliari means a fight for promotion to the conference league until the very end of the season.

The team’s top scorer is Teun Koopmeiners, the 27-year-old midfielder has already scored 11 goals in Serie A. However, he is still waiting for his first shot in the Europa League. The Dutchman added 2 more goals in the Italian Cup.

Liverpool vs Atalanta odds

Betting tip – Liverpool -1.5

The current form of both teams clearly plays into the hands of the home team. The players want to bid Klopp farewell with as many trophies as possible and they are unlikely to be upset by Atalanta in their quest for the Europa League. Liverpool are likely to confirm the great home form in both halves and the opponent in a bad frame of mind will not be able to resist. The match is also ideal for Salah, who could find his shooting touch ahead of a tough end to the season.
