Preview
Young Boys come into this having lost 2-0 away to Villarreal in their previous UCL clash on MD 4.
Capoue and Danjuma scored for the Yellow Submarine in either half to keep their qualification hopes alive and dash Young Boys’.
With that loss, Young Boys are last in Group F with 3 points from 4 matches.
On the other hand, Atalanta drew 2-2 against Manchester Untied in their MD 4 clash to remain 3rd in the table with 5 points from 4 matches.
Ilicic and Zapata were the scorers for Atalanta while Ronaldo scored twice for Manchester United.
Young Boys and Atalanta have a slim chance of making it through to the next round but need results to go their way.
However, there is plenty to play for ahead of this new clash as it is 3rd vs 4th in Group F.
Both sides last met on MD 2, where Atalanta won 1-0 at home. Hence, this is the chance for Young Boys to exact revenge.

Prediction: Young Boys 0-2 Atalanta
Both sides haven’t performed to the best of their potentials due to which they have not made progress in the group.
We expect Atalanta to win this clash given they are in better form, quality coming into this while Young Boys need a lot more experience to play the big sides in the UCL.
They still lack in many areas and need more time to overcome challenges.
Players to watch out for: Siebatcheu, Ngamaleu, Zapata and Zappacosta.
