Atalanta vs Sporting CP 14.03.2024 Prediction: UEFA Europa League

Match Overview

Atalanta meet Sporting CP in a match in the second leg of their round of sixteen clash in the UEFA Europa League at the Gewiss Stadium on Thursday. Sporting CP will consider themselves to have the upper hand in this game, but it will not be easy for them to do so given that they will not be playing in familiar conditions.

Key Highlights 

What will worry Atalanta a lot is the fact that they have not won a match in their last 5 attempts to do so. They also haven't kept a clean sheet in 5 matches, and this will not help their defenders feel good about themselves at all. Although the first leg was played out as a 1-1 draw, Atalanta know that they have to make the most of it in this game. 

Injury Report

Atalanta do not have any of their major players ruled out of this game while for Sporting CP, Antonio Adan will not be available for selection due to a thigh injury that he sustained earlier this season.

Prediction

Sporting CP have a big advantage over their opponents in this game, and we expect them to win it quite comfortably. Atalanta will not be able to compete on equal footing with Sporting CP in this game, and it remains to be seen how well they challenge their visitors. Sporting haven't lost in 11 matches as well as being unbeaten in their last 5 away games.
