Hapoel Tel Aviv — Atalanta 0:0
Referee: Daniel Schlager
The big night for Hapoel Tel Aviv in Europe has arrived. The Reds are currently hosting Atalanta for the second leg of the Conference League playoff. After an impressive 0:0 in Bergamo, all possibilities remain open. Elyaniv Barda's squad knows that a victory will send them to the league phase and mark one of the club's greatest achievements in recent years, while the Italians arrive with the goal of proving their superiority and avoiding an upset.
Hapoel Tel Aviv has made an impressive journey to this stage. Barda's team started the European campaign by eliminating Ludogorets, continued by passing Poland's Katowice, and in the first match against Atalanta, they displayed excellent defensive ability, withstanding the Italians' pressure. Now, the Reds hope to complete the job against one of the top teams in Serie A.
On the other hand, Atalanta arrives after starting the 2026/27 Italian league season with a 1:2 victory over Sassuolo. Giacomo Raspadori gave "La Dea" the lead, and Nikola Krstović later secured the win, giving Maurizio Sarri his first league victory as the team's coach. The Italians will try to show better form than in the first match, where they failed to find the net despite controlling the game.
For Hapoel, this is an opportunity to return to the league phase of a European competition for the first time since the 2012/13 season, when they participated in the Europa League group stage alongside Atlético Madrid, Viktoria Plzeň, and Académica.
