A Champions League battle with plenty at stake as the two are battling for second place in Group F. Atalanta is known for its attacking offensive play, but they're in fourth place in the Italian Serie A League with a solid defense (19 goals allowed in 16 matches). That defense is tied for fifth-best in the 20-team league. Atalanta will be without midfielder Robin Gosens for this one. Villarreal is not going to get into an uptempo game as they are getting outscored 17-16 in 15 Spanish La Liga matches. Villarreal comes off a 1-0 defeat at Sevilla and its last two Champions League matches were low scoring affairs, a 2-0 win over Young Boys, and a 2-0 loss to Manchester United. Take Atalanta/Villarreal UNDER the total.
