Bayer Leverkusen and Atalanta Bergamo face each other this Wednesday evening in the Europa League final. The German club, freshly champion of Germany and author of an exceptional season (undefeated in 51 matches in all competitions, a record) overthrew AS Rome in the final moments to reach the final (4-2, cumulative score ). Bayer Leverkusen, coached by Xabi Alonso and led by the “magician” Florian Wirtz, is the favorite in this meeting.

Atalanta Bergamo finished 5th in Serie A, the Italian championship, and will play in the Champions League next season. In the semi-final, after hanging on to OM in the first leg (1-1), the Bergamasques made short work of the Marseillais (3-0) on the return leg. Led by a very good De Ketelaere, Atalanta has not said its last word.

The match will be played this Wednesday evening and will start at 9 p.m. at the Aviva Stadium (Ireland). It will be broadcast on Canal Foot, Canal and W9 and will also be followed live with commentary on the Figaro.fr website by our journalist Alexandre Jourdan.
