It's the final  Champions League  round of 2025 as the competition heads into Matchday 6 of this season's competition with another set of mouth-watering fixtures. 

One of which comes from Italy as Serie A meets the Premier League and Atalanta host Chelsea. 

Atalanta are under new management following the disappointing start to the season from Ivan Juric and new boss Raffaele Palladino takes charge of his first Champions League encounter on home turf. 

Since being thrashed by PSG in their opening game, Atalanta haven't lost again in the competition and go into this clash having beaten Eintracht Frankfurt two weeks ago. 

They welcome a Chelsea team who pulled off one of the results of Matchday 5 when they saw off Barcelona with a 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge, showing that on their day, Ezno Maresca's side are a match for anyone. 

The West Londoners' array of attacking talent will be out for another three points to strengthen their position in the top league's top eight.

Atalanta vs Chelsea  - the key men 

Ademola Lookman - Atalanta 

Premier League fans will remember Lookman's exploits well, but since moving to Italy, he's taken his game to a new level - personified by his memorable hat-trick in the 2024 Europa League final. 

After a slow start and some disagreements with former boss Ivan Juric, Lookman is getting back into gear and that could spell trouble for Chelsea. 

The Nigerian international is full of tricks and will keep the backline on their toes. 

Estevao - Chelsea 

Most attention will be on Cole Palmer if he's fit for the trip, but there's so much excitement around this Brazilian teen right now. 

Estevao has quickly become a big favourite at Stamford Bridge, with his quick feet and dribbling gett the fans off their feet. 

His spark could be just what's required in what's expected to be a tight affair.

Atalanta vs Chelsea prediction

Atalanta are one of Serie A's most stubborn sides and will be difficult to break down for the Blues. However, given the momentum after the Barcelona result, they just have enough to find all three points.
