Borussia Dortmund failed to secure a single win in the Champions League group before dropping down to the Europa League. While Atalanta did not lose a single game in their Europa League group stage matches.
Dortmund will likely be a tougher opponent to Everton and Appolon Limasol.
Dortmund are the most experienced side heading into this game as they have even reached the Champions League final before and have many years experience in European competitions.
Atalanta have struggled to combine domestic and European games this season as they currently lie in 8th position heading into this game, but they have been consistent in Europe and their fans would be looking forward to this game.
These two teams have never met each other competitively before now but they did play a preseason game together in the year 2017 and Atalanta won 1-0 – that was just a fitness game and the result can’t mean much heading into a game of this stature.
Atalanta come into this game off the back of three wins, two losses and one draw from their last 6 games.
Dortmund have drawn 3, lost once, and won twice in their last 6 games.
This game could be a high scoring game as four of Atalanta’s group games saw both teams score, while 4 of Dortmund’s last 6 games have also seen both teams score.
