Explore Bwin's detailed preview for Atalanta vs Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League. Stats, odds, predictions, and lineups for the 20:00 GMT match.
Atalanta's recent form suggests a team in good spirits, having secured three wins in their last five matches, including a convincing 3-0 victory against Eintracht Frankfurt away from home. Their predicted 3-4-2-1 formation, with Scamacca leading the line and supported by De Ketelaere and Lookman, indicates a balanced approach that could exploit Chelsea's defensive vulnerabilities. The potential absence of key players like Scalvini and Bakker might slightly hinder their solidity, but their attacking prowess remains intact.
Chelsea, on the other hand, have shown resilience with three wins and a draw in their last five outings, highlighted by a 3-0 home win against Barcelona. Their 4-2-3-1 setup, with Neto up top and Garnacho in a creative role, should provide a strong offensive threat. However, the absence of three injured players might affect their midfield control. This match could be closely contested, with both teams likely to score.
