Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the UEFA Champions League match.
Atalanta
The side has usually scored a goal in their games. Atalanta have scored at least a goal in 8 out of the last 10 games in all tournaments. Scamacca has scored 10 goals and made 2 assists in the last 12 games played by Atalanta. Pasalic has substituted Kolasinac, the options in attacking actions are even increasing. The last game Atalanta played was against Salernitana. Atalanta beat the opponent (2:1) with better statistics in ball possession (69-31), shots (17-9) and xG (1.87-0.42).
Marseille
Marseille have won only 2 out of the last 10 games, keeping the clean sheet only once. They have conceded at least a goal in 16 out of the last 17 games. The defending actions are not a strong side of the team. Even some sides from the middle of the French 1 table have quite a lot of attempts playing against Marseille. For example, Toulouse in their home game made 10 shots.
Atalanta – Marseille prediction
Atalanta will score at least 2 goals in this game and will most likely reach the final. Marseille will unlikely be able to play well in defence as Atalanta have a very good attacking line.
