Penalty shoot-outs
- Olympiacos’ record in one UEFA penalty shoot-out is no wins and one loss: 1-4 vs Ludogorets, 2021-22 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round.
- Atalanta have yet to feature in a UEFA penalty shoot-out.
Atalanta's form guide
- Atalanta finished third in last season’s Serie A to qualify for a third successive appearance in the UEFA Champions League group stage. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side were also runners-up to Juventus in the Coppa Italia, losing 2-1 in the final in Reggio Emilia.
- The Bergamo club had never featured in the UEFA Champions League before 2019-20, when they reached the quarterfinals on debut before failing to Paris Saint-Germain. They again reached the knockout phase in 2020-21, losing to Real Madrid in the last 16, but were unable to complete the hat-trick this term, managing just one win in their six group games – 1-0 at home to bottom-placed Young Boys – and finishing with six points.
- This is Atalanta’s second appearance in the UEFA Europa League knockout phase, the previous one, in 2017-18, having ended of the round of 32 with elimination by Borussia Dortmund (2-3 away, 1-1 at home) after they had topped their group.
- The team from northern Italy are without an away win in four European matches (two draws and two losses), although they have scored eight goals in those games, seven in this season’s UEFA Champions League group, where they drew at Villarreal (2-2) and Young Boys (3-3) either side of a 3-2 defeat at Manchester United. Their six previous European away games in the spring have yielded just one win (one draw and four losses) – 4-3 at Valencia in the second leg, Josip Iličić scoring all four goals to seal 8-4 aggregate triumph.
- Atalanta’s record when winning the home first leg in UEFA competition is two wins and one loss, that tie against Valencia two years ago the most recent. This is the first time they have travelled to a European second leg in a 2-1 advantage.
Olympiacos' form guide
- Champions of Greece for a record-extending 46th time in 2020-21, when they finished 26 points ahead of runners-up PAOK, who defeated them 2-1 in the Greek Cup final, Olympiacos also finished third in their UEFA Champions League group before reaching the round of 16 in the UEFA Europa League – a repeat of the previous season.
- Pedro Martins’ side failed to return to the UEFA Champions League group stage this term, losing their first UEFA penalty shoot-out to Ludogorets in the third qualifying round following an earlier victory against Neftçi Baku. A UEFA Europa League play-off win over Slovan Bratislava ensured group stage football, however, and they clinched a top-two berth with a game to spare after completing the double against Fenerbahçe (3-0 away, 1-0 at home) despite losing both games to Eintracht Frankfurt, who eventually finished three points ahead of them at the top of Group D.
- Olympiacos are making a joint-record ninth appearance in the UEFA Europa League knockout phase. They are bidding to reach the round of 16 for the fifth time – and for the third successive season – though they have never made it beyond that stage of that competition.
- The Piraeus club have won just two of their 12 home games in the UEFA Europa League knockout phase (two wins, five draws and five losses) and had gone nine without a victory until they overcame a PSV Eindhoven 4-2 in the first leg of last season’s round of 32. Their European home record this season is four wins, one draw and one loss.
- Olympiacos have won just one of the 22 UEFA ties in which they were defeated away in the first leg. That, however, occurred in one of the three ties in which they had to overturn a 2-1 first-leg deficit in Greece – against Belgrade side Rad in the first round of the 1989-90 UEFA Cup (2-0 at home). The last three ties in which they were eliminated after losing the first leg on the road all came in the UEFA Europa League round of 32, the most recent against Anderlecht in 2015-16 (0-1 away, 1-2 at home).
Match background and previous meetings
- Defeated 2-1 in Bergamo, Greek champions Olympiacos must beat Atalanta in Piraeus if they are to claim their first victory over Italian opposition in a two-legged European tie in 50 years.
- Olympiacos finished runners-up in UEFA Europa League Group D behind Eintracht Frankfurt with three wins and three defeats, while Atalanta entered this competition after failing to make it three successful UEFA Champions League group stage campaigns in a row as they lost their win-on-bust final Group F fixture 2-3 at home to Villarreal, there by remaining in third place, four points behind their Spanish conquerors and five adrift of section winners Manchester United.
- Atalanta’s Albanian international defender Berat Djimsiti was the star of the show in the first leg – the first meeting of the clubs in UEFA competition – as he struck twice in three minutes from corners, his first career double giving the Italian side a 2-1 victory after they had trailed at half-time to Tiquinho Soares’ early strike for Olympiacos.
- This is Olympiacos’ 28th UEFA match against Italian opponents, their record standing at seven wins, five draws and 15 losses. At home, the figures are four wins, four draw and five losses with two wins in the last three games, most recently 3-1 against Milan on Matchday 6 of the 2018-19 UEFA Europa League group stage – their biggest victory against Italian visitors and a result that took the Greek side through to the round of 32 at the Rossoneri’s expense.
- This is the Greek champions’ first knockout tie against Italian opponents this century; their record in the previous seven is one win and six losses, the only victory against Cagliari in the first round of the 1972-73 UEFA Cup (2-1 at home, 1-0 away).
- Atalanta’s only previous pairing with Greek opposition was a 1987-88 European Cup Winners’ Cup second round tie against OFI Crete, in which they overtuned a 0-1 first leg deficit with a 2-0 win in Bergamo in route to reaching the semi-finals.
