Villarreal vs Atalanta: Storylines

The last edition of the UEFA Europa League was won by Villarreal against Manchester United in a game that ended in a penalty shootout. The team feels in good shape after winning an important title outside of Spain where it is almost impossible to win the local league with such strong rivals as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Atalanta had a good experience in the 2020-2021 Champions League as the second best team in Group D with 11 points, 3 wins, 2 draws and a loss. In the knockout phase they were swept by Real Madrid 4-1 (AGG) in the round of 16.

Villarreal have an overall negative record in the UCL with 9 wins, 12 draws and 13 losses for a 26.47% win ratio. They have better results in the UEFA Europa League at 72-30-24, but after all they are similar tournaments.
