2026/27 UEFA Conference League playoffs
Overview
The 2026/27 UEFA Conference League playoff round has concluded for the primary matchups. Atalanta has successfully qualified for the league phase after defeating Hapoel Tel Aviv 1-0 on aggregate. The tie began with a 0-0 draw in the first leg at the New Balance Arena in Bergamo, which marked the official debut of Maurizio Sarri as Atalanta's head coach. Ahead of that match, the Global Sumud Flotilla projected a ‘Boycott Israel’ message onto the stadium walls as a humanitarian protest. The decisive second leg was held at the DVTK Stadium in Miskolc, Hungary, due to security considerations. Gianluca Scamacca scored the winning goal in the 72nd minute shortly after entering the match as a substitute. Following the victory, Sarri praised the Israeli side, stating they were ‘very dangerous’ and possessed organization that exceeded their international reputation. This victory marks Atalanta's fifth consecutive appearance in European competition and contributes to a season where seven Italian teams are participating across the three major continental competitions. In preparation for the league phase, Atalanta has confirmed that its entire first-team squad is eligible for UEFA competitions. The club successfully navigated stringent UEFA registration criteria regarding age and club-trained player status, including players such as Giorgio Scalvini. While the club maintains flexibility in Serie A with two remaining slots for potential January additions, all primary players have been included in the UEFA lists. Additionally, the club has launched the 24th edition of its socio-educational project, ‘La Scuola allo Stadio’, which connects the club with local schools. Regarding the upcoming campaign, Atalanta has sold 14,015 mini-subscriptions for the three home matches during the League Phase. The club is scheduled to begin its continental campaign on October 15 against Pafos.
