Just as it was expected, the first duel of these two rivals in Dortmund was brilliant and both teams played open, which brought five goals and a minimum victory for Borussia. Those 3-2 did not solve anyhing and they have only brought a slight advantage to Borussia, however, Atalanta has scored two goals away, and this is definitely a great boost for this rematch. After the triumph, Borussia celebrated in the championship and it was a difficult hosting, so they are now in a series of four wins, while Atalanta has not celebrated for three matches.

Atalanta Bergamo

It is no surprise anymore when Atalanta plays a good match away, but the home games are already a problem and they might regret that they have dropped points in Dortmund. They probably would accept a 3-2 defeat before the match, but they had a 2-1 lead and had a 2-2 till the injury time, but they did not endure. That they have problems when playing in Bergamo was confirmed by the championship match with Fiorentina last weekend.

They received a goal in the early stages of the match and managed to equalize in the finish of the first half-time, but they could not do more than that, although in the end they also had more players in the field. Coach Gasperini has made a number of changes in all of the team's lines and has even changed the goalkeeper and it was quite expected because they needed freshness in the game. By that logic, we now expect the same team on the field in Dortmund.

Probable lineups Atalanta Bergamo: Berisha – Toloi, Caldara, Masiello – Hateboer, de Roon, Freuler, Spinazzola – Cristante – Ilicic, A.Gomez

Borussia Dortmund

These victories are not something very convincing, but Borussia has made four, and when we add to that three draws, then it is seven games without defeat, meaning they have not experienced any in the second half of the season. Of the four wins, three were minimal, including a triumph over Atalanta, when they had the most problems. It could easily happen they lose that match, while the unresolved was practically already recorded when the newcomer Batshuayi hit and brought great joy.

He was in the series of coring goals since he came from Chelsea, however, his team was series ended on Sunday in M'gladbach, when Reus brought the victory to his team when he scored for 1-0. He has been struggling with injury for a long time, but since he has returned, he plays very well. Coach Stoger made only two changes for M'gladbach and M.Gotze played from the first minute instead of Pulisic, and the newcomer Akanji replaced Topraka. Now Akanji has no right to perform, as well as Weigl because of the suspension, which are only additional problems with numerous injuries.

Probable lineups Borussia Dortmund: Burki – Piszczek, Sokratis, Toprak, Toljan – Castro, Dahoud – M.Gotze, Reus, Schurrle – Batshuayi

Verdict:

Atalanta generally does not play badly, but something is always missing and they are particularly vulnerable on their field. They have shown in Dortmund how unpleasant they are, however, they have lost and now they have to reach that advantage, which Borussia could use to their benefit, and we believe that the guests will stay undefeated.
