Atalanta

WDWLLL 📉

Atalanta will be looking for an improved result here after a 0-1 Serie A defeat last time out to Lazio.

In that match, Atalanta had 58% possession and 10 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. On the other side, Lazio had 8 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Gustav Isaksen (54') was the scorer for Lazio.

A common trait of recent Atalanta games is the number of nil scores.

From their previous sextet of clashes before this one, in 6 of them a wager on both teams scoring would have been a loser. That trend might not be carried forward into this next game, though.

Their past results show that Atalanta:

• have not beaten Bologna in their last 4 league matches.
• haven’t won at home in the past 7 matches in the league. Their fans aren't happy.

Bologna

WWWWWD 📈

In their last game, Bologna drew 1-1 in the Serie A match with SSC Napoli.

In that game, Bologna managed 61% possession and 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Bologna was Dan Ndoye (64'). Napoli got 6 shots on goal with 2 on target. Frank Anguissa (18') was the scorer for SSC Napoli.

In their previous half-dozen clashes, Bologna have bagged the sum of 14 goals. Bologna have additionally got on the scoresheet in every single one of those games. Over that period, they have seen 3 goals go into their own net.

Taking a look at their past results, Bologna:

• haven't been beaten by Atalanta when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league games.
• are undefeated in their previous 2 league matches away from home.

👥 Head to head

A review of their most recent head-to-head meetings going back to 09/01/2023 shows that Atalanta have won 1 of these & Bologna 4, with the tally of drawn matches being 1.

A combined total of 12 goals were shared by the two clubs in these games, with 4 from La Dea and 8 netted by Rossoblu. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.

🗞️ Team News: Atalanta

Marco Palestra (Hamstring strain), Stefan Posch (Hamstring muscle injury), Charles De Ketelaere (Adductor injury), Gianluca Scamacca (Hamstring injury) and Giorgio Scalvini (Shoulder injury) are not available for Atalanta gaffer Gian Gasperini.

It’s our opinion that La Dea will possibly employ a 4-4-2 formation, beginning the first half with Marco Carnesecchi, Berat Djimsiti, Isak Hien, Sead Kolasinac, Juan Cuadrado, Ederson, Marten de Roon, Davide Zappacosta, Mario Pasalic, Mateo Retegui and Ademola Lookman.

ℹ️ Team News: Bologna

Bologna boss Vincenzo Italiano has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Davide Calabria (Ankle sprain), Lewis Ferguson (Hamstring injury) and Lukasz Skorupski (Adductor injury) are those who can’t be considered.

It’s our belief that Rossoblu seem most likely to play in a 4-2-3-1 system by sending out Federico Ravaglia, Emil Holm, Sam Beukema, Jhon Lucumi, C. Lykogiannis, Remo Freuler, Tommaso Pobega, Dan Ndoye, Jens Odgaard, Benjamin Dominguez and Santiago Castro.

🔮 Prediction

We feel that Bologna will do well to hit the back of the net against this Atalanta lineup who should win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We therefore fancy a good battle with a 1-0 winning score for Atalanta at the end of this one.

Let’s see what happens.
