Atalanta receive Real Madrid this Wednesday in a very entertaining game at Gewiss Stadium for the 2020/21 UEFA Champions League round of 16. Italians and Spanish will fight for a spot in the quarter-finals. Check out how to watch this can’t-miss game in the US, the match preview, all the information, predictions, and odds.

Atalanta landed here in a very dramatic way, ruining Ajax’s plans to make it to this round thanks to a late-goal by Luis Muriel that sent the Italian side to the Round of 16 for the second consecutive season.

Real Madrid had to suffer more than necessary and had to eliminate an Italian side of the competition. They beat Inter Milan twice in the group stage, two important wins for Los Blancos in their fight to make it to this point of the competition.

Real Madrid had won four of their last five matches, only losing to Levante in the La Liga. They are fighting to catch Atlético Madrid in the standings and also want to compete for this trophy, the most important in European football. Going against Atalanta might look easy on paper but they can’t think that this team will be easy to beat.

This will be the first meeting between these two teams ever. In fact, Atalanta had never faced a Spanish team until last season when they clashed with Valencia at this exact round.
