Background information, news and team form

The Bianconeri have already guaranteed their participation in the knockout stage of this millionaire competition with one match to spare, despite losing their last Champions League match at the London Chelsea ground 4-0. In a group that included Juventus, Chelsea, Zenit and Malmo, Allegri’s team finished second with 12 points.In Serie A, in recent years Juventus fans were used to a dominant performance from the beginning of the season, but the last few seasons have started to show Juventus' transfer policy, where the management tends to sign older and experienced players for free and no longer monetize them, and despite some exceptions like the arrival of De Light, Juventus' squad is simply too old and in need of rejuvenation. Moreover, at the end of the transfer window, star Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, who kept Juventus on top with his goals, left the team and the attacking duo of Morata and Dybala have so far failed to replace him. Juventus are now in the eighth position outside the cup standings with 21 points, and fans will have to be patient and simply trust their team to lift the Italian Scudetto at the end of the season. Atalanta, unlike Juventus, is having their best season in a long time. For the umpteenth time, Atalanta has managed to qualify for the European Cups and now they still have a chance to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League. In the group stage, they are currently in 3rd place with 6 points guaranteeing at least a Europa League appearance. In the Italian league, Atalanta is in 4th place with 25 points, having not lost any of their last 5 matches and managed to win 3 times. Colombian Duvan Zapata has been Atalanta's main attacking asset so far this season and has already managed to score 8 goals and 3 assists, placing him 4th in the scorer’s table. Atalanta will be looking to take another three points in this match and consolidate their position in the Champions League standings for next year, while Juventus would like to add more points to their climb up the table.
