Prediction: 1-2
Liverpool
Sparkles will be flying when Atalanta and Liverpool take on each other at Gewiss Stadium in what is expected to be an interesting Europa League game. The Reds experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-0 loss to the Orobici at Anfield and, as a result, they need a big win in the return leg. Both Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz should be recalled to the starting XI after the duo came off the bench in the first leg, while Thiago Alcantara remains in the recovery room alongside Joel Matip.
The Serie A side, on the other hand, are determined to defend their slim lead and we are positive that they will adopt a cautious approach in Thursday’s clash. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Liverpool have no other option but to go all guns blazing at Atalanta. Speaking of the home side, both De Roon and Zappacosta are back from the domestic bans.
Highlighted Player (Mohamed Salah):
Mohamed Salah is considered one of the best African players. Salah began his senior career at El Mokawloon, scoring 11 goals in 41 league appearances for the club and in 2012 he moved to Europe, signing a four-year deal with Swiss side Basel.
The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as a striker as well was producing outstanding displays for the RotBlau from 2012 to 2014 and, as a result, Chelsea chiefs decided to sign him on 26 January, 2015 for a fee of £11 million. Mohamed Salah, though, failed to impress in the Premier league and one year later he was sent on loan to Fiorentina.
After making 16 league appearances for the Viola in the Serie A, the left-footed winger signed a loan deal with Roma on 6 August, 2015. The Romans made the contract permanent on 3 August, 2016. Speaking of his international career, Salah made his Egypt debut on 3 September, 2011 in a 2-1 loss to Sierra Leone. It has to be noted that he was named Roma’s player of the season (2015/2016).
