Prediction: 3-1
Sturm Graz
Atalanta will be aiming to cement top position in Group D when they take on Sturm in Bergamo on Thursday evening. The Orobici failed to impress in a 2-1 loss to Inter at the weekend, but they have been producing fine performances in the Europa League group stages this term and, as a result, the bookies see them as favourites to beat the Austria Bundesliga side. Luis Muriel, who scored a brace in the last group game, is pushing for a start, while both Lukas Vorlicky and El Bilal Toure should miss out with injuries.
Die Schwoazn, on the other hand, did well to hold Atalanta to a draw in front of home fans, but given their difficulties on the road, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise this time out. To make things even worse for the visiting side, midfielder Stefan Hierlander serves a one-game ban following his sending-off in the Merkur-Arena clash.
