Atalanta general manager Umberto Marino admits facing Liverpool will be very special this week.
The two clubs will meet on Thursday in the first-leg of their Europa League quarterfinal.
Marino said: "Something very precious, we know how much we worked and suffered to reach this goal of being able to play in Liverpool.
"Liverpool are a strong, technical team, but they will have the spirit of yesterday's Cagliari. We will have to be strongly Atalanta, with the desire to demonstrate in a provincial championship.
"We are building an experience in an evening that will go down in the history books of Atalanta. Playing at Anfield with the public, not like in 2020, will be an episode to remember for a lifetime."
