Liverpool won 2 times and Atalanta won 2 times, they are evenly matched. This shows that liverpool and leverkusen were unlucky to play against atalanta who are an opponent that has historically done well against them, unfortunately atalanta in series A don't even have any chance of becoming series A champions in all seasons. That's why in my opinion I say that leverkusen is not a strong team outside of germany, they will do poorly in the european champions league, just like liverpool and even atalanta
Bayern Leverkusen playing in the champions league will be a lot different thing for them because they haven’t been there for many many years ago. All the existing players of the team have no much experience of the champions league, so it will be a bigger challenge for them. They’ve proven how strong they are in the Bundesliga and also in the Europa league. Now the greater test awaits them in the champions league where the best teams in Europe plays in that competition and the competitive edge between the teams their are very high unlike where they’re coming from. If they resist the competitive nature and come out victorious, that is when we can now say that Bayern Leverkusen are up to the task also.
