Atalanta VS Liverpool

Atalanta host Liverpool for this UEFA Europa League quarter-finals 2nd leg battle at Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo early Friday morning Beijing time. This is the second-highest of UEFA's club competitions, after the Champions League of course. The stakes are massive between these two teams. Not every major team prioritize this in the group stage – and rotate the squad - but at this phase of the competition all teams usually are usually fully motivated. Liverpool's legendary coach, Jurgen Klopp, fielded a pretty strong group in the first leg against Sparta Prague in the last round. However, they did not start the first leg with quite their best lineup.. Against Sparta Prague in the second leg, Klopp picked more or less his best squad – to many fans' and bettors' surprise. Atalanta are a pretty big team but only Liverpool are world-class at the moment! They are only a little worse than Manchester City and Arsenal but pure class at the moment. Once again I need to mention that the English Premier League is clearly the best league on the planet. The Italian Serie A where Atalanta play is the 4th-best league in the world. Liverpool lost their last game last weekend against Crystal Palace. This was a big blow to theit chances of winning the championship. They are now two points behind Man City who top the standings with 73 points to their account. Arsenal too have taken 71 points. However, Man City has the easiest schedule for tlast remaining six games. As a result Liverpool will surely want to win the Europa League!

Liverpool were extremely unlucky to lose to Crystal Palace 0-1. The had a whopping 70% ball possession and genereted 3.21 in xG! Atalanta won the first leg 3-0 but the final score is very misleading! Indeed, Liverpool had 65% ball possession and generated many more goal attempts! It was one of Liverpool's worst games this season though and they will almost certainly improve here! Atalanta played a strong game – well above their normal level. They can afford to lose this match by a margin of two goals and still qualify. Liverpool will surely be very aggressive here and have a very big chance of winning by a margin of at least one goal! Atalanta are currently in 6th place in the Serie A with 51 points to their account. Their number of expected points (xPTS) is lower though. According to Transfermarkt.com, a well-known German website, Liverpool are the much bigger team here! Their squad has an estimated total market of over 900 million euros. The Atalanta players are valued at close to 350 million but this is way too high in my expert opinion.. Liverpool swept past Sparta Prague in the last round 12-1 on aggregate so they can score a lot of goals if needed!

亚特兰大VS利物浦

北京时间15日凌晨，亚特兰大主场迎战利物浦，将在贝加莫geweiss体育场进行欧联杯1 / 4决赛第二回合的比赛。这是欧足联第二高的俱乐部比赛，当然仅次于冠军联赛。这两支球队之间的利害关系很大。并不是所有的主要球队都在小组赛阶段优先考虑这个问题，并且轮换阵容，但在这个阶段，所有的球队通常都是充满动力的。利物浦的传奇教练尤尔根·克洛普在上一轮对阵布拉格斯巴达的首回合中派出了一支相当强大的队伍。然而，他们并没有在第一回合的比赛中打出他们最好的阵容。在第二回合对阵布拉格斯巴达的比赛中，克洛普挑选了他最好的阵容，这让许多球迷和投注者感到惊讶。亚特兰大是一支相当强大的球队，但目前只有利物浦是世界级的!他们只比曼城和阿森纳差一点点，但现在是一流的。我需要再次提到的是，英超联赛显然是这个星球上最好的联赛。亚特兰大队所在的意甲联赛是世界上排名第四的联赛。利物浦队上周末输给了水晶宫队。这对他们赢得冠军的机会是一个很大的打击。他们现在落后曼城2分，后者以73分排名榜首。阿森纳也拿到了71分。然而，在剩下的六场比赛中，曼城的赛程是最轻松的。因此，利物浦一定会想要赢得欧联杯!

利物浦队非常不幸，0-1输给了水晶宫。他们的控球率高达70%，全场得分高达3.21 !亚特兰大队第一回合3-0获胜，但最后的比分很容易误导人!事实上，利物浦有65%的控球率，并且创造了更多的进球机会!这是利物浦本赛季最糟糕的一场比赛，他们肯定会在这里取得进步!亚特兰大打得很好，远远超过了他们的正常水平。他们可以承受以两球之差输掉这场比赛而仍然晋级。利物浦在这里肯定会非常积极，并且有很大的机会以至少一球的优势获胜!亚特兰大目前以51分排名意甲第6位。不过，它们的期望值(xPTS)较低。根据德国知名网站Transfermarkt.com的说法，利物浦在这里要大得多!据估计，他们的总市场价值超过9亿欧元。亚特兰大球员的身价接近3.5亿美元，但在我的专家看来，这太高了。在上一轮比赛中，利物浦以总比分12:1横扫布拉格斯巴达队，所以如果需要的话，他们可以进很多球!
