Atalanta Olympique Lyonnais betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This clash has a special character in this round of the Europa League, as it faces two teams that are already classified for the next phase of the competition. Both live similar realities within European football, but Lyon has been making a better season in the French Championship than Atalanta in the Italian Championship. 
In the last match between the two teams, the balance was evident, since it ended tied by (1-1), in the house of the French. 
Now we expect again a very balanced game, the draw being a good betting option, but with the favoritism for the home team.

Preview
Atalanta and Olympique Lyonnais face at Stadio Città del Tricolore, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Europa League (Group Stage). Atalanta registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

After 3 wins and 2 draws, the home team is currently in the 1st position, with 11 points won. In the last match, they have won (1‑5) in an away match against Everton, after in the previous round they have tied (1‑1) in an away match against Apollon. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses in away matches; against 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss at their stadium. In their last match, for the Serie A, they got an away tie against Torino by (1‑1). In the last 10 home matches Atalanta has won 8 and tied 2.

In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 5 matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 5 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Confirmed Lineup: Etrit Berisha, Hans Hateboer, Leonardo Spinazzola, Andrea Masiello, Mattia Caldara, Rafael Tolói, Bryan Cristante, Remo Freuler, Josip Iličić, Alejandro Gómez, Andrea Petagna.
