Match Preview

Everything is on the line in Miskolc, Hungary, where Hapoel Tel Aviv and Atalanta meet in a Conference League play-off decider. After a goalless first leg in Bergamo, the winner books a spot in the league phase, while the loser's European campaign ends here.

Atalanta arrive unbeaten in four games under new boss Maurizio Sarri, who was nonetheless unhappy with his side's lack of courage first time out. Charles De Ketelaere, Nikola Krstovic and Giacomo Raspadori lead the attack, though defensive injuries to Thomas Kristensen, Isak Hien and Honest Ahanor have thinned Sarri's options.

Hapoel Tel Aviv reach this stage after eliminating Ludogorets and GKS Katowice in earlier qualifying rounds, with Emmanuel Boateng their sharpest attacking threat. Winger Stav Turiel is a doubt with a hamstring problem, but the Israeli side have had a rare rest week to prepare for the visitors.

Our prediction: 0-2
