Although Atalanta sometimes managed to make a surprise in the Europa League and in Serie A but still, to make a surprise in the Champions League is not easy at all. So yes, even though it currently has a new format but I'm still not sure Atalanta is able to advance further in the Champions League. but even so, at least to qualify for the last 16 or maybe the quarter-finals basically Atalanta still has a chance but of course it won't be easy.
I am very sure Atalanta will make it to the round of 16 in the Champions League. They play Arsenal, Shakhtar, Celtic, Stuggart, Young Boys and Real Madrid. The only fixtures that look impossible for them here are Arsenal and Real Madrid, other than that they have a good chance of winning the rest of the other games.
Atalanta have started the season in a slow form and that has always been a problem of theirs. They start the season slowly and begin to get better as the season goes further. Despite that, I believe they will qualify for the round of 16.
I do not know if they will make it past the round of 16 because I don't know who they will be paired against, but I know they will get to the round of 16.
They must first prove with the game that they can show, if their game is so promising then their chances of qualifying for the last 16 are very open, but if their game tends to decline then their task will be even more difficult.
But I am sure they will have great motivation to be able to do a lot in the Champions League this season. Their capital is when they were able to become champions in the Europa League last season and also when they managed to reach the final in the local competition, so they must continue it.
It's very true , when we take a look at the Injured Madrid players we can Worry a lot , because they are very good , but seeing that there are so many and so good that they are doing Well , well one Says that from there come Two easy and high level Teams that can Maintain a good Streak , and what you say about Mbappé is a fact , the player is super motivated , I think he is playing with his Soul , his heart, this player has Everything in his Name , for me he Wants to fight for that Ballon d'Or , Apart from Earning all the love of his Fans and the new white Fans.
This is what is feared to happen to a team and it is clearly a big problem when most of their players have to suffer injuries and what is even more detrimental is that this happened at the beginning of the season which should have been an opportunity for them to get their game this season.
Ancelotti has to think hard because he has to rotate and the rotation must go well. Because when they fail to do it then they might be left behind, especially since this is the Champions League which we know the competition here is very fierce. But I hope Ancelotti can implement a good backup strategy so that losing many players does not have a big impact on them.
