Pre-buzz around the game
Both teams haven't played each other previously. Injury concerns plague both sides as Atalanta will miss the services of Italian goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi and centre-back Mattia Caldara. Virgil van Dijk, Fabinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Kostas Tsimikas are still notable absentees for Liverpool. The Gian Piero Gasperini side has made some impressive strides in Serie A in recent times and they made it to the quarterfinals of last edition's Champions Trophy.
Nathaniel Phillips and Joe Gomez were standout performers for Klopp in their recent Premier League game and it will be interesting to see if he goes with Phillips over Rhys Williams. Their defense will be under the pump today and Atalanta will look to make the most of it.
Who will win?
While Liverpool comes in as favorites, they have another side that has fared equally well in the tournament. Expect this to be a close game.
