So far so good for Atalanta, i'm looking forward to spring 2024.
Sturm Graz is likely to overwinter after a few failed attemps.
A "few"?!
The last time they did it was over two decades ago, in 2000/2001 CL. They progressed from the first round group stage in a group with Rangers, Galatasaray and Monaco, and then couldn't progress from the second round group stage ("last 16"), in a group with Valencia, Manchester United and Panathinaikos.
It's funny that apart from me, everyone else here was unanimous in their "Raków 3rd and Sturm last" prediction.
And I suppose that these "pot 4 3rd place and pot 3 last place" kind of predictions heavily rely on the pot 4 team's capacity to win its home match against the pot 3 team.
So when that doesn't happen this belief fades.
It's not over yet. Maybe Sturm and/or Raków can also get points against Atalanta and Sporting. Perhaps Raków can defeat Sturm in Austria despite not doing it in Poland!
