Atalanta – the shape of the team and its analysis: the footballers have no time to rest
“The Bergamascs” played 8 matches in April and this will be their third match this month. Gasperini is forced to use rotation. At the same time, he manages to achieve decent results. The participation in the Coppa Italia final is guaranteed, the chances of finishing in the top 5 of the Serie A have increased. As for the Europa League, the unbeaten streak ended in the tenth match, but Liverpool had been defeated on the away field with a 3-0 score before that. The team also quickly opened the score at Velodrome, but finished only with a 1-1 draw.
Marseille – the shape of the team and its analysis: the results in the European tournament contrast favourably
“The Provencals” were knocked out of the cup early. Speaking about the Ligue 1, the “bronze” medallist of two previous seasons, despite the repeated replacement of coach, will not rise above 6th place, and it is by no means guaranteed. As for the Europa League, the struggle continues (Olympique takes its toll at the home arena there). Having drawn in Hamburg and lost in Spain and Portugal, thanks to victories at the Velodrome, Shakhtar, Villarreal, and Benfica were overcome, although the latter was defeated on penalties. The club limited itself to answering the conceded goal with its own in the confrontation with the representative of Italy.
