JAKARTA - The Europa League has entered the quarter-finals. Four matches will roll from Thursday night to Friday, April 8 in the morning WIB.
The match between RB Leipzig vs Atalanta will be the opening match for the first leg of the 2021/2022 Europa League quarter-finals. The meeting of these two teams will take place at the Red Bull Arena on Thursday, April 7 starting at 23.45 WIB.
This first leg will be the first meeting between the representatives of Germany and the dark horse team of the Italian representatives. If you refer to the notes on paper, for the last five matches of each team, this meeting is believed to be fierce.
The reason is that RB Leipzig, which will host the match, has not lost in their last five matches. They won three wins and two draws. But the fact that they qualified for the quarter-finals without any meaningful effort will also be a question of the team's performance.
Domenico Tedesco's children advanced to the quarter-finals without any effort. Because their opponents in the last 16, Spartak Moscow from Russia were disqualified by UEFA due to the aftermath of the Red Bear Country's military invasion of Ukraine.
As for Atalanta, their performances in the last five matches are said to be not very consistent. The reason, this Italian representative recorded three wins, one draw, and one loss.
The defeat was obtained by La Dea against Napoli in the last match in the Italian League. In a match that took place on April 3, Gian Piero Gasperini's team lost 1-3.
Switch to another game. Barcelona will travel to the headquarters of Eintracht Frankfurt, at Deutsche Bank Park on Friday, April 8 at 02.00 WIB. For the Blaugrana, taking part in the second caste competition of European clubs is somewhat foreign because they appear more often in the Champions League.
Apart from that fact, the meeting between Barcelona and Frankfurt will also be the first meeting between the two teams. In the match later, Barcelona is more favored to win.

In addition to the imbalance in the composition of the squad, Frankfurt is also experiencing a negative trend. Oliver Glasner's team is recorded to have never won in its last four matches because all of them ended in a draw.
In the last five games, they have also only scored two goals and conceded the same amount. This condition will certainly be used by Barcelona, which since being handled by Xavi Hernandez has begun to show a revival. The Blaugrana are unbeaten in 13 consecutive matches.
