Ajax vs Atalanta

Ajax comes to this last challenge of the group with the hope of being able to reach the round of 16, a bit like last season and always playing at home. But this time the pitchers, unlike a year ago when it would have been enough to draw at home with Valencia (then knocked 0-1), are in third place with 7 points, after losing 1-0 last Tuesday on the field of Liverpool. Ten Hag’s formation was bent by a Jones net in the 58th minute, taking advantage of a glaring error by goalkeeper Onana.

On the other hand, Atalanta is coming back from a 1-1 draw at home to Midtjylland, managing to beat the Danes back in the final, who, although already eliminated, did not skimp on commitment and intense. Guests took the lead in the 13th minute of the first half with a shot from outside the box by Scholz, before the very important equalizer scored by Romero in the 79th minute. A draw that allowed the Orobici to rise to 8 points and second place alone, thus being able to count on two results available in this decisive trip.
