Atalanta kicks off their UEFA Europa Conference League campaign on August 20, 2026, hosting Hapoel Tel Aviv. La Dea enters the continental competition following a domestic season that saw them secure 14 wins, 12 draws, and 7 losses, scoring 45 goals while conceding 29. Their recent form is respectable, with two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five outings, reflecting a win rate of 42%. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side will be keen to leverage their experience and home advantage against an unknown quantity.
Hapoel Tel Aviv’s statistics are a blank slate, as this marks the start of their competitive season. Their form is naturally unavailable, presenting a narrative of uncertainty for both teams. The Israeli outfit will be looking to make an immediate statement on the European stage, potentially surprising their more established opponents. For Atalanta, the key will be to avoid complacency and assert their dominance early against a side eager to prove themselves. Watch for Atalanta's attacking prowess against what could be a resolute Hapoel defence, and how the visitors manage the pressure of their European debut.
