Atalanta will host Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League last-16 round on Wednesday. The kick-off is at 21:00 CET.

Preview

With a single loss in their last 20 matches across all competitions, Atalanta are enjoying one of their best-ever seasons this term. Gian Piero Gasperini's side, however, are only fifth in the Serie A table, one point adrift of Roma who sit in fourth, following a 4-2 victory against Napoli on Sunday.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, haven't been at their best this season so far. Zinedine Zidane's men have claimed six wins, three draws and one loss in their previous ten games in all competitions. The Whites sit in second in the La Liga standings, three points behind Atletico who have a game in hand, and will travel to Bergamo on the back of a narrow win at Valladolid over the weekend.

Right-back Hans Hateboer is the only confirmed injury absentee in the Goddess' squad for the upcoming encounter.

The visitors, in turn, are in the midsts of an injury crisis right now as Eden Hazard, Sergio Ramos, Eder Militao, Rodrygo, Marcelo, Federico Valverde and Daniel Carvajal won't feature on Wednesday.

Prediction

Considering all the injury absentees in Madrid's squad, including centre-backs Ramos and Militao, we'd say that Zidane's side are actually far from being considered favourites to win in Bergamo. It would be fair to say that the Whites were lucky enough to make it to the competition's knock-out stages in the first place and thus Atalanta are likely to reach the CL quarter-finals in consecutive seasons this time around.

Tip

Atalanta to win at 2.372 with 1XBET.
