Football Predictions Wednesday

Atalanta v Bayer Leverkusen 

The Aviva Stadium in Dublin is all set as Atalanta face Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final on Wednesday. 

It’s been a brilliant season for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, after falling short in the Coppa Italia final, Atalanta bounced back with a 2-0 victory over Leece on Saturday resulting in La Dea already securing a spot in next season’s Champions League campaign before this Europa League final. Atalanta could make history here in Dublin as they bid to become the first Italian side to win the UEL and they enter this one in fine form, losing just once in their last nine games in all competitions (W7, D1, L1).

No other side can compete with Bayer Leverkusen’s current form though, their 2-1 victory over Augsburg on Saturday meant Die Werkself completed the Bundesliga as Invincibles (W34, D6, L0), the first team to complete an unbeaten season in any Europe’s top five league since Juventus back in 2011/2012. There just doesn’t seem to be any stopping Xabi Alonso’s side, they’ve now put together fifty-one games without defeat and the history makers have two cup finals left to complete the ultimate season for Bayer Leverkusen. 

These two sides have met in this competition before during the 2021/2022 campaign, Atalanta actually won both of those games in the round of 16, they would love to make it a hat-trick in Dublin. Europa League finals are usually an entertaining watch, with seven of the last nine finals seeing both teams hit the back of the net, I’m expecting to see the same here as Bayer Leverkusen have had to come from behind in four of their six Europa League knockout games this season, we’re in for a good one here.
