In Bergamo, a clash between two teams will begin, with bookmakers and football experts having already determined the winner. Forgetting that this is the Champions League, where the Moldovan Sheriff at Santiago Bernabéu could beat Real Madrid. Not to mention the solid Italian club with rich experience in continental tournaments. Atalanta has quite decently conducted the group stage of the Champions League. While the Serie A champions Napoli were unsuccessful in their bid to reach the knockout stage, the Bergamasques comfortably finished fifteenth, even before the last round depriving themselves of all concerns about participation in the playoff round. Bayern this season is the best example of itself. In recent years the Munich club has never been so convincing. This autumn the management rightly appreciated it, extending Kompany's contract. The group stage of the Champions League Bayern played with one breath. Seven wins and one defeat in eight matches clearly characterize the club's domination on the European stage. The only failure for Kompany's team came in London, as they lost to the overall-stage winner Arsenal. Bookmakers set the visitors as favorites for the upcoming match, offering odds of 1.64 on their victory. In the playoff's preliminary round, Atalanta already had to prove its worth to the German club. In the first leg they faced Borussia Dortmund. Moreover, the confrontation began with Atalanta's 0-2 defeat in Germany. It was on their home turf that the Italian club deservedly crushed the Wasps 4-1. The latest results of the Bergamo club clearly emphasize the players' focus on the Champions League. After the triumphant rout of Dortmund, Atalanta could not win three consecutive matches on the domestic stage. Bayern, before the start of the playoff, completed all their work in the Bundesliga. With nine rounds to go until the end of the season, the club's lead at the top grew gigantic. Essentially, in Bergamo will take place the most important match for Bayern in recent weeks. At the same time, do not expect the guests to decide all questions about advancing to the next round already in Italy. In Bergamo, the German champions will have to play without Kane, Neuer, and a couple of other less valuable players.
