Marseille vs Atalanta Prediction: Will the guests be able to handle their opponents?

Prediction for the UEFA Europa League match which will take place on May 2. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Marseille

The Provençal side started the season with one head coach - Marcelino, continued with another - Gennaro Gattuso, and is finishing with a third - Jean-Louis Gasset. The coaching reshuffle has not helped Marseille to rise above seventh place in the French league so far. Although the victory in the previous round over Lance (2:1) allowed the Blue and Whites to move closer to the European Cup competition at a distance of two points.

As for the Europa League, on the way to the semi-finals, Marseille got past Shakhtar (2:2 away, 3:1 at home), coped with Villarreal (4:0 at home, 1:3 away), and in the quarter-finals broke Benfica's resistance (1:2 away, 2:0 at home on penalties).

Atalanta

The Bergamaschi are performing slightly better than Marseille in the domestic league this season. Having beaten Empoli 2:0 in the previous round of Serie A, the team moved up to sixth place in the table and are two points behind the top-five, the Champions League competition.

Atalanta have already reached the final of the Italian Cup and are close to repeating that success in the Europa League. In the quarter-finals, we remind you, Bergamo unexpectedly beat Liverpool, smashing the Reds at Anfield 3:0, and losing at home only 0:1. Before that, Bergamaschi coped with Portuguese Sporting (1:1 away, 2:1 at home).

Expert Betting Tips

Marseille has been experiencing problems in defence throughout the season, and the changes of head coaches did not affect this. Atalanta also regularly scores and concedes, so in the upcoming game the most acceptable betting options are total over and both teams to score. Let's not think of anything else here, especially after the cancellation of the away goal rule, the results in the first matches of the two-round confrontations in the European Cup have increased significantly.
