Facing the possibility of being eliminated from the Europa League, Liverpool faces a daunting task as they head to the Gewiss Stadium for the second leg of their quarter-final clash with Atalanta BC on Thursday night.
Atalanta stunned Anfield with an impressive 3-0 victory in last week’s first leg, leaving Liverpool in a challenging position. However, the Reds have a history of overcoming seemingly insurmountable deficits in European competitions.
After eliminating a team potentially led by a future Liverpool manager, Ruben Amorim’s Sporting Lisbon, Atalanta returns to face the Reds in England after a three-year absence. They famously defeated Liverpool at Anfield during the 2020-21 Champions League group stage.
