Atalanta-Bayer Leverkusen in the 23-24 Europa League final
Atalanta and Bayer Leverkusen will meet in the final of the Europa League 2023-24 on 22 May at the Aviva Dublin Arena.
A European final that will be the first for the team from Bergamo, who have had a superb competition, finishing top of their group with 14 points and seeing off Sporting CP in the round of 16, Liverpool in the quarter-finals and Olympique Marseille in the semi-finals.
Bayer Leverkusen have not been able to wake up from their slumber and are continuing a spectacular season after winning their first Bundesliga title and earning a place in the DFB Pokal final against second-division side Kaiserslautern.
The German team under Xabi Alonso has managed to reach another final and their aspirations for a possible treble are skyrocketing. And if that wasn't enough, they have now gone 49 consecutive matches without defeat. A real achievement that makes them the most fashionable team on the Old Continent.
Atalanta's passage to the Dublin final later this month was fully deserved after a dominant performance in which Marseille barely had a kick in yet another poor away display from the Ligue 1 outfit. That is a remarkable achievement for a club whose only major trophy is the 1963 Italian Cup.
