In that initial game, Atalanta got on the board first thanks to a Luis Fernando Muriel Fruto goal in the 17th minute, but the team’s dream of going into the second leg with a lead evaporated in the second half, when Davide Zappacosta recorded an own goal to put RB Leipzig on the board.

Goalkeepers | Musso, Rossi, Dajcar, Bertini, Sportiello |
Defenders | Toloi, Maehle, Palomino, Pezzella, Djimsiti, Demiral, Hateboer, Scalvini, Cittadini, Zappacosta |

La Dea currently sits eighth in the Serie A standings, where the team has lost its last two matches, falling to Napoli and Sassuolo. After three consecutive third-place finishes in Serie A, this campaign is a disappointment for a club that has been perennially near the top of the league since the 2016-17 season.
But the team still has a chance to win the Europa League. After falling out of the Champions League, Atalanta has looked strong in this competition, beating Olympiacos by a 5-1 aggregate scoreline in the knockout round playoff and then defeating Bayer Leverkusen 4-2 in the Round of 16.
Russian Malinovskyi already has three goals in Europa League play.
Predicted Atalanta starting XI: Zappacosta, Palomino, Demiral, Hateboer, Freuler, de Roon, Pašalić, Koopmeiners, Pessina, Muriel; Musso.

Like Atalanta, Die Roten Bullen advanced to the Europa League after being knocked out of the Champions League. The team dispatched Real Sociedad by a 5-3 aggregate score in the knockout round playoff, then advanced through the Round of 16 when Spartak Moscow was suspended from the competition by UEFA.
Emil Forsberg is the only RB Leipzig player with more than one goal during this Europa League campaign, as he scored on penalty kicks in both legs of the Real Sociedad matchup.
In domestic play, the team currently sits in fourth place in the Bundesliga. If that position holds, RB Leipzig would qualify for next year’s Champions League.
Predicted RB Leipzig starting XI: Klostermann, Orban, Gvardiol, Henrichs, Laimer, Kampl, Tasende, Olmo, Nkunku, Silva; Gulácsi.
