Atalanta vs Club Brugge Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Kennedy Kechula in Champions League Predictions
Atalanta will be out to salvage their Champions League campaign when they play host to Belgian side Club Brugge this Tuesday. This will be the return leg match of their knockout play-off tie which at the moment stands in favor of the Belgians. Club Brugge left it late to beat Atalanta 2-1 in the first leg. In this preview we will offer two predictions for the possible outcome as the teams meet in Bergamo.
Heading into this two-legged tie pitting the Belgian champions against the Europa League holders, it was Atalanta who started as favorites. The Italians went into the playoffs having finished the league stage just a point below the top eight.
Club Brugge, however, ripped the form book in the opening leg, having finished the league phase in the last possible spot – 24th. Atalanta are taking on a Belgian side for the fourth time in history while Club Brugge are facing an Italian side for the fourth time this season. The aggregate winner from this two-legged tie will meet either Lille or Aston Villa in the next round.

Atalanta - Club Brugge: Form Analysis
Atalanta trailed from early in the first leg and while they thought Mario Pasalic's goal could salvage a draw, late drama would ensue. Club Brugge won and converted a 94th minute penalty and the first ever meeting between the two sides ended in favor of the Belgians.
That match was just one in a largely lean spell for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side. They once looked like a solid side, but a poor run in recent times has them on three wins in the last 13 matches. In their last outing, Atalanta drew 0-0 with Cagliari.
That was their third draw in the last six matches, a period in which they only managed a 5-0 win against Verona. It will worry the Italians as well, that they managed just a win in their four league stage home matches.
Atalanta have managed two wins in 12 home Champions League matches.
Club Brugge will pull a great result if they can avoid defeat here. With a slim lead from the first leg, they need at least a draw in this game to advance. The last time they visited Italy, their match ended in a 3-1 loss to AC Milan.
They’ve since played two other Italian sides this season and avoided defeat. The latest of them was against Atalanta, which they left late to win 2-1.
It will build their confidence that in the last six Champions League matches, they lost just once. In that run, they registered three wins, all with a one-goal margin. On the flipside, Club Brugge have just a win in seven away matches in the Champions League.

Atalanta & Club Brugge Squad Analysis
Atalanta have a lengthy injury list and that’s what has stalled their progress both in Serie A and Europe. The most notable of them is Ademola Lookman’s injury, with the African Player of the Year set to miss out again here.
The Nigerian is recovering from a knee injury that is expected to keep him out until late February. Lookman has 14 goals across all competitions, with four of them being in the Champions League.
His numbers in the Champions League are quite impressive, taking 22 shots in seven matches and with a 3.90 expected goals return. He will definitely be missed, but Mateo Retegui, with three goals in the Champions League, will be a worthwhile option.
Retegui may be deployed as a lone striker though Atalanta need goals.
At Club Brugge the injuries haven't really been a concern this season. The only player on their injury list is Bjorn Meijer. The Dutch defender hasn’t been involved a lot in the season and only featured a total of 16 minutes in the Champions League so far.
In one of the matches, he was thrown into the fray against an Italian team – Juventus. Gustaf Nilsson scored the winner in the first leg, through a penalty. That was his first Champions League goal in five matches this season and he will be fired up for this game.
There’s a lot of improvement to target for the man who has nine league goals. In the Champions League he has only attempted four shots.

Our Atalanta vs Club Brugge Prediction
The last time Atalanta went into a European tie while trailing from the first leg was against Borussia Dortmund. Back then, in the 2017/18 Europa League, they would draw 1-1 Bergamo. Home fans would fear for the worst and they hope history doesn’t recur.
However, the possibility remains, as Atalanta have won four times in 13 Champions League matches. Club Brugge aren't on a great winning run either, and will be happy to come into this game leading. Our prediction for Atalanta v Club Brugge is for a draw.
Atalanta vs Club Brugge - Other Interesting Predictions
Both teams to score
Clean sheets have been a rare occurrence in these teams’ matches. Atalanta have one in their last five Champions League matches but they scored in all the matches. Club Brugge are coming into this one with just a clean sheet in the last five matches.
They also managed one in the last five Champions League matches, with both teams scoring in four. With such a trend, we are backing both teams to score, in our second prediction.
