RB Leipzig coach Domenico Tedesco will be without Yussuf Poulsen and Amadou Haidara.
Atalanta manager Gian Gasperini has to pick a team with limited player availability. Bryan Cabezas, Merih Demiral, Josip Ilicic and Rafael Tolói will not be in the eleven.
We think that Atalanta will certainly get on the scoreboard against RB Leipzig. But, that doesn’t convince us that it will be enough to come out on top. We’re going for a narrow 2-1 scoreline for RB Leipzig when the referee calls the final whistle. Sparks will fly.
