The Europa League quarter-finals are full of great matches, with this double-header between Liverpool and Atalanta Bergamo certainly being one of them. Since the start of the C3, Liverpool has looked strong, despite not having a flawless overall performance. The Reds didn’t have any trouble finishing at the top of their group. In the Round of 16, they systematically destroyed Sparta Prague. Now, sitting in 2nd place in the Premier League, they find themselves with the same number of points as Arsenal (1st). Jürgen Klopp's team will have their work cut out in this Europe League quarter-finals. The first leg will be played at Anfield on Thursday at 9pm.

For their part, Atalanta Bergamo also easily finished at the top of their Europa League group. La Dea was able to overcome Sporting CP in the Round of 16, despite the closely contested match featuring a 1-1 draw in the first leg, squeaking out a 2-1 victory in the return leg—in front of their home fans. Currently 6th in Serie A, Gian Piero Gasperini's men will hope to continue their winning ways when they travel to England. Being a particularly attack-minded team, they'll have everything they need to give the Europa League favorites a run for their money.
