Nicky Hayen should have a complete complement to the player at your disposal for the first leg on Tuesday.
We saw that Brugge’s dynamic and fast front lines caused problems with Man City in their final exit of the phase, and we could see the unchanged initial XI from Etihad. Brugge faded after Hayen turned to his bench.
Gustaf Nilsson scored the only goal of the Brugge home win 1-0 over the weekend, but will probably fall on the bench for Ferran Jutgla. Hugo Vetlesen also spins a few minutes in the middle of the park.
Club Brugge predicted the VS Atalanta line (4-2-3-1):: Mignolet; SEYS, ORDONEZ, Mechele; De Cuyper; Onyedika, Vetlesen; Taibi, Vanaken, Tzolis, Jutgla.
Rui Patricio enjoyed a race at Atalanta XI, and Marco Carnesecchi dealt with a muscle injury that could overthrow him from the game on Tuesday. The former Wolves goalkeeper finished Serie a Stopped the weekend in the dominant victory of Atalanta.
ADEMOLA LOOKMAN is dealing with the knee problem, while Giorgio Scalvini nurtures shoulder injuries. They both doubt the first leg, but first it should return next week. Daniel Maldini almost immediately joined the injury list after he arrived in January.
Sead Kolasinac and Odilon Kossouonou are Gasperini’s second concern for injuries in defense.
Atalanta predicted a line against the Bruggge club (3-4-2-1): Patricio; Posch, hien, djimiti; Bellanova, De Roon, Epson, Zappacosta; Samardcic, de Ketelaere; Retegui.
Atalantine injuries make this potential skin of a banana, but Gasperini’s side is historically top notch in the event of trouble and their current situation will not distract them. They were in a furious mood over the weekend, and the star season Mateo Retegui continued the strikes of the strikes in Verona.
Club Brugge was inserted into the play-off, but throughout the league phase, he showed that they could convey a threat to some of the best European dogs. Atalanta must be careful about their speed in wide areas, but visitors overcame their hosts through the orientation of man, is a distinct possibility.
Expect the Atalanta to be set up for August 16 with a victory in Belgium.
Predicting: Club Brugge 1-3 Atalanta
