Atalanta visits Bruges against Club Brugge on Wednesday evening for the first leg of her champion League-Play-Off.
The team of Gian Piero Gasperini was one of the more impressive teams in the league and lost only once, but three draws were missing a desired top berth with just one point. Her 2-2 draw with Barcelona on matchday 8 was an excellent result in isolation, but it opened the door for Bayer Leverkusen, Lille and Aston Villa to beat it until the 16th round.
You will 5-0 in the first legs on Wednesday at the weekend. However, a stuttering start to the new year has led you to lose ground in the Scudetto race.
The Club Brugge pressed the goal difference in the play-offs, thanks to Paris Saint-Germain, which Stuttgart defeated 4-1 on the last league phase matchday. Brugge was beaten 3-1 in Manchester City in Europe last time, but her 11-point train was enough to advance her.

Nicky Hayen should have a complete addition to the players for the first leg on Tuesday.
We saw how Brugges caused problems in their course of the last league, and we were able to see an unchanged start -xi from the Etihad. Brugge faded after Hayen turned to his bank.
Gustaf Nilsson scored the only goal of the game at the 1-0 win of Brugge at the weekend, but will probably fall on the bench in favor of Ferran Jutgla. Hugo Vetlessen also competes in the middle of the park.
Club Brugge predicted the line-up against Atalanta (4-2-3-1): Mignolet; Seys, ordonez, mechele; De cuyper; Onyedika, vetlessen; Taibi, Vanaken, Tzolis, Jutgla.
Rui Patricio has a run with Marco Carnesecchi in Atalanta XI with a muscle injury that could exclude him from the game on Tuesday. The former goalkeeper of Wölfen completed a Serie A shutout at a dominant Atalanta victory at the weekend.
Ademola Lookman is dealing with a knee problem, while Giorgio Scalvini violates a shoulder injury. Both are doubts about the first leg, but the former should be back next week. After his arrival in January, Daniel Maldini almost immediately joined the injury list.
Sead Kolasinac and Odilon KossoUnou are gasperinis other defense injuries.
Atalanta predicted the line-up against Club Brugge (3-4-2-1): Patricio; Posch, Hien, Djimisiti; Bellanova, de Roon, Eöder, Zappacosta; Samardzic, de Ketelaere; Retegui.
Atalantanta injuries make this a potential banana skin, but the side of gasperinis was historically excellent in the past and its current situation will not put it off. They were in a rampant mood at the weekend, with Mateo Retegui’s outstanding season continued with a quartet of strikes in Verona.
Club Brugge scratched the play-offs, but showed throughout the league that they can bring a threat to some of the best dogs in Europe. Atalanta has to be aware of its speed in wide areas, but visitors overwhelm their hosts over their home -pushed human orientation.
Expect that Atalanta will set up for a round of 16 berths in Belgium.
