Barcelona vs Atalanta Preview

Barcelona and Atalanta clash in the final round of the UEFA Champions League as the Italian side will be desperate to remain in the automatic qualification spot.

Form

Barcelona have been in scintillating form in the Champions League and head into this fixture on the back of a 7-1 demolition of Valencia in La Liga.

They are now unbeaten in their last seven games in all competitions with six wins and a draw including a chaotic 5-4 win over Benfica in their last Champions League games.

Hansi Flick's side have been impressive in front of goal with 5+ goals scored in four of their last five games across all competitions.

Barcelona have won six consecutive Champions League games with over 2.5 goals featuring in all seven of their Champions League campaign this season while the Spanish giants have scored 3+ goals in six Champions League matches.

Atalanta have been impressive in the Champions League this season but come into this fixture on the back of a poor run of form where they have won just two of their last seven games in all competitions.

Gian Carlo Gasperini's side boasts a strong record in the Champions League this season with just a single defeat this season with four wins and two draws.

They have scored 2+ goals in four of their seven Champions League games while Over 2.5 goals have featured in five of their Champions League matches this season.

Atalanta have won all three of their away Champions League games.

Verdict

Barcelona have sealed their place in the top eight spot while Atalanta will be weary of losing out on automatic qualification. With both teams in good goal scoring run, I'll be backing both teams to find the back of the net.
