Player Focus

Atalanta’s three midfielders will be pivotal in their efforts to contain the Anfield onslaught on Thursday. Football bet predictions show that Pasalic, de Roon and Koopmeiners will be charged with patrolling the midfield, beating the press, keeping the ball, and starting attacks.

The wide players will be essential for players, especially Salah and Diaz. Expert soccer predictions show that these wide players will be tactically essential in dealing with the Atalanta wingbacks while exploiting the spaces in wide areas to create chances and give them the capacity to hurt the visitors.

Tactical Analysis

Football predictions highlight the consistency of Liverpool’s 4-3-3 formation, which has been a staple under Jurgen Klopp. This approach will hand them control of the midfield area against Atalanta on Thursday.

Atalanta will retain their usual 3-4-1-2 formation. The three midfielders will give them a chance to compete against Liverpool’s three in the middle. 

Football prediction analysis indicates that wingbacks will hand Atalanta an edge offensively and defensively as they adapt, depending on whether they are on or off the ball.

Liverpool vs. Atalanta Expert Analysis

Liverpool are irresistible at Anfield. Their dynamic midfield married to a fluid attack is typically difficult to contain for most visitors to Anfield. Atalanta will face most of the same challenges on Thursday when they take on Jurgen Klopp’s charges.

Liverpool will press from the front and force Atalanta into transitions in their half, allowing Liverpool to attack and create chances. The odds of Liverpool scoring in this match are good. The Reds are also the football pick to get the first goal.

Atalanta have kept one clean sheet in their last six matches in all competitions. Their defensive shape has not been reliable this season when faced with precision attacks like they will at Anfield on Thursday.

However, their attacks have provided significant potency for Atalanta. Therefore, the odds of conceding first are good. However, given the open nature of the likely clash on Thursday, they are also likely to get a goal back in this match.

Betting Odds

Pre-match odds, which provide free football predictions on the 22bet site, heavily back Liverpool to get off to a winning start in this two-legged tie before their trip to Italy for the second leg.

Liverpool’s odds of a home win, 1.336, are significantly better than Atalanta’s 8.2, with a draw pegged at odds of 5.45. 22bet will also offer live prediction football on the site, adding to the options.

Liverpool have been in brilliant form in front of the home fans at Anfield. Given their current form, and their core target of getting off to a winning start in this tie, they are the heavy favorites to get a win.

Atalanta will focus primarily on being compact and solid in their clash against Liverpool. A tactically disciplined performance will be required to keep Anfield quiet and blunt the Liverpool attack, which will give them a fighting chance over two legs.

Liverpool will win and take a lead into their second leg in Italy as they bid to make it into the semi-final in yet another route to silverware available to Jurgen Klopp and his men.
