Tip and bets
Atalanta are in a poor form of late, but situation is far from hopeless. Despite a slight loss of form, Bergamo side should be able to get a victory over Olympiacos - Greek side lost two out of three away matches during the group stage, plus their opponent is a much more classy team.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1) on Atalanta
Atalanta will surely play offensively at home. Olympiacos struggled on away matches in the Europa League, even against mediocre opponents, so it will be difficult to keep a clean sheet in Bergamo. But Atalanta also concede many goals, so we are expecting a goal exchange.
Our second bet is on both teams to score
