Can Atalanta Upset the 2024 Europa League Odds?

Atalanta is a +300 underdog in the 2024 Europa League Final, which is no surprise given that the Italians are taking on the new champion of the German Bundesliga. However, this team has already knocked out a couple of big favorites out of the competition.

The best example is Liverpool, which Atalanta beat 3-1 on aggregate. In their first duel, Atalanta beat Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield despite coming to England as a +700 underdog.

However, thanks to brilliant performances by Mario Pasalic, Gianluca Scamacca, and others, Atalanta was able to pull one of the biggest upsets in the history of the Europa League. Can the Italians do something similar again?

Bayer Leverkusen Going for the Second Trophy of 2024

This has been arguably Bayer Leverkusen’s best season in the 21^st century. After all, these guys won the German Bundesliga for the first time in the history of the club, which was founded back in 1904.

On May 22, they will have a chance to win another trophy. If they beat Atalanta, they’re going to add the second Europa League trophy to their collection. They won the first one back in 1988 when the competition was still called the UEFA Cup.

But even if they don’t win, no one will take it against them. This means that there’s no pressure on them to perform. Instead, they can relax and have a good time in Ireland. Nevertheless, even if they take it easy, they’re expected to have a good game.

After all, their roster looks incredible. With players like Granit Xhaka, Victor Boniface, Florian Wirtz, and others, Bayer Leverkusen looks like the team that should win the 2024 Europa League Final.

Atalanta vs. Bayer Leverkusen Prediction

Our Europa League Final prediction is that Xabi Alonso’s men are going to win. It’s just that Bayer Leverkusen is a better team than Atalanta. It’s not going to be an easy win for the Germans, though. Instead, we expect to see the Italians fight with all they’ve got.

And they’ve got pretty good offense! That’s why we expect to witness goals galore in Dublin, probably with a goal or two on each side.
