Atalanta has secured a spot in the knockout rounds of this season's UEFA Europa League (UEL) by dominating Group D until now. Despite a recent stumble in Serie A with a draw against Udinese and a loss to Napoli, Gian Piero Gasperini’s team remains atop the group with ten points. Sporting CP, just three points behind, aims to close the gap. Atalanta, also known as The Goddess, previously defeated Sporting CP 2-1 and is confident heading into the match, having lost only two of their last eight home European matches (W5, D1).

Sporting CP, eager to narrow the margin with Atalanta and maintain their three-point lead over Sturm Graz, faces a critical encounter. Their hopes of advancing could be impacted if they fail to secure points here. Sporting CP, historically, hasn't won in any of their 15 prior visits to Italy (D3, L12). However, they have been relatively successful on recent continental away trips, losing just two of their last nine European away games (W3, D4).

Players to watch: Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman, known for his second-half prowess, has scored four of his last seven goals between the 50th and 60th minutes. Sporting's Pedro Gonçalves, a key figure for his club, recently helped secure a victory against Raków in the UEL with a pair of penalties, extending his unbeaten run to 23 games when scoring for Sporting CP (W19, D4).

Sporting CP carries the challenge of breaking their winless streak in Italy, but their recent form on European away games offers hope. To remain unbeaten, they need to build on the resilience shown in recent continental ventures and capitalize on the H2H advantage gained with a 2-1 win over Sturm Graz on the opening day. A solid defensive strategy and the goal-scoring prowess of players like Pedro Gonçalves will be crucial in navigating this challenging away fixture.

亚特兰大在本赛季的欧联杯(UEL)淘汰赛中以D组领先的优势获得了一席之地。尽管最近在意甲遭遇战平乌迪内斯和输给那不勒斯的挫折，吉安·皮耶罗·加斯佩里尼的球队仍然以10分领先小组。仅落后3分的马德里竞技希望缩小差距。亚特兰大，也被称为女神，之前以2-1击败了CP竞技，并且对比赛充满信心，他们在最近的8场欧洲主场比赛中只输了2场(W5, D1)。

渴望缩小与亚特兰大的差距并保持对格拉茨的三分领先优势的体育CP面临着一场关键的比赛。如果他们不能在这里拿到积分，他们晋级的希望可能会受到影响。从历史上看，体育CP在之前15次访问意大利的比赛中没有赢过任何一场(D3, L12)。然而，他们在最近的欧洲大陆客场比赛中相对成功，在最近的9场欧洲客场比赛中只输了2场(W3, D4)。

值得关注的球员:亚特兰大的阿德莫拉·卢克曼(Ademola Lookman)以下半场的出色表现而闻名，他在比赛的最后7个进球中有4个是在第50分钟到第60分钟之间打进的。体育的佩德罗·贡帕拉尔维斯是俱乐部的关键人物，他最近在UEL中用两个点球帮助球队战胜Raków，并为体育CP进球，将自己的不败纪录延长到了23场。

体育CP面临着打破他们在意大利的不败纪录的挑战，但他们最近在欧洲客场比赛中的表现给了他们希望。为了保持不败，他们需要在最近的欧洲大陆冒险中表现出韧性，并利用在开幕日以2-1战胜格拉茨Sturm Graz所获得的H2H优势。坚实的防守策略和像佩德罗·贡帕拉尔维斯这样的球员的进球能力将在这场充满挑战的客场比赛中发挥关键作用。
