Atalanta have made a reliable start to the Europa League this term, as they have recorded back-to-back victories in the competition. They will be looking to extend that winning sequence on Thursday when they travel to Sturm Graz.
Atalanta have already put their marker down for Group D, as they comfortably sit top of the standings after two rounds of matches. The Italian giants have recorded back-to-back victories, and they currently sit three points clear of Sporting Lisbon in the race for the only automatic qualifying spot for the next round in the competition.
Sturm Graz remain in the hunt for a place in the next round of the competition, but they have landed just a single victory from their opening two matches. They will likely need maximum points on Thursday to keep pace with Sporting Lisbon in the race for second, as the Portuguese giants take on Rakow.
Atalanta have already landed victories in their opening two matches this season. However, they could make history on Thursday, as they have never landed victories in each of their opening three matches at the start of a European competition in their history.
Sturm Graz landed a win over Rakow on matchday two, and they will also be looking to create history on Thursday, as they haven’t won back-to-back matches in a European competition since the 2000-2001 Champions League group stage. William Boving could be the star to watch for the hosts on Thursday, as he has netted both of the Sturm goals in the competition to this point.
Sturm Graz will be coming up against Atalanta for the first time in their history on Thursday. However, the team have landed just one victory in their previous 12 clashes with Italian opposition. Their only victory was recorded in the 2002-03 season against Lazio. Atalanta have never previous come up against a team from Austria in their European history.
Atalanta have started the Europa League group stage in excellent form, and they look to be a level above their rivals in this group. We expect them to press home their dominance in Group D on Thursday by landing a third straight victory to extend their advantage at the top of the standings.
