Atalanta welcome Young Boys to the Gewiss Stadium in Group F of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.
The hosts head into the game off the back of an impressive draw against Inter Milan in Serie A, while the visitors claimed a 2-1 win over FC St. Gallen.
Atalanta were denied their third win on the trot last time out when they played out a 2-2 draw against Inter Milan.
Prior to that, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men picked up a 1-0 win over Salernitana before beating Sassuolo 2-1 on home turf.
They now head to the Champions League where they came from behind to salvage a 2-2 draw in their Group F opener.
Meanwhile, Young Boys secured a dramatic 2-1 win over Premier League giants Manchester United two Tuesdays ago.
After Cristiano Ronaldo scored to hand the Red Devils a 1-0 lead heading into the interval, the hosts upped the ante in the second half and turned the tie around through goals from Nicolas Ngamaleu and Jordan Siebatcheu.
David Wagner’s side head into Wednesday’s game unbeaten in their last 10 outings across all competitions, picking up an impressive nine wins and one draw.
