The bookmakers seem to still expect both teams to do the scoring, but we don't. While Atalanta can be soft in defence when visiting, at home the defence just doesn't get exposed, so Sturm will have a harder time finding the net. Undoubtedly, after scoring twice against the superior team, they believe they can potentially achieve something similar in Bergamo, but it will be by an order of magnitude more difficult. Sturm did well to hold Atalanta to a 2-2 draw and it was a massive effort worth respecting. Atalanta only keeps a clean sheet when the opponent doesn't have the ball much, and when they're lucky. Everyone is thinking Atalanta is a good defensive team when they look at the number of clean sheets, but this isn't true. However, the team is frequently let down by its poor defence, especially on the road. There's no player who isn't well-versed in the build-up phase. Everyone here can play ball, especially the Dutch and Belgian players such as Marten de Roon, Teun Koopmeiners and Charles De Ketelaere. The players move around effortlessly and always seem to find open space in the box.
