Atalanta Form

Atalanta stunned Liverpool with a 3-0 win in the quarter-final first leg at Anfield. The victory extended La Dea’s unbeaten run in the Europa League to nine consecutive matches, including six wins.

The Serie A side dropped league points for a second consecutive match after the Liverpool win. Atalanta gave up a 2-0 lead and drew 2-2 at home against Hellas Verona on Monday.

Gianluca Scamacca and Ederson scored in the first 18 minutes to put Atalanta ahead. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side then conceded twice early in the first half.

Liverpool lost their third Europa League match in six against Atalanta in the first leg.

The result came during the Reds’ three-match winless streak. Jurgen Klopp’s outfit drew at Man United (2-2) and lost to Crystal Palace (1-0) either side of the Atalanta defeat.

Liverpool were 1-0 down after 13 minutes against Palace and couldn’t reply, despite having 3.04 expected goals.
