Atalanta

WWDWWW 📈

Atalanta are hoping to win again after their last result, the 2-3 Serie A victory against Genoa.

In that match, Atalanta managed 44% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 6 on target. For Atalanta, the scorers were Ibrahim Sulemana (47'), Daniel Maldini (63') and Mateo Retegui (89'). Genoa got 12 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. Andrea Pinamonti (37', 58') scored for Genoa.

Their most recent results shine a light on the fact that quality has been evident in the Atalanta backline. Atalanta have kept it tight, with the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their last 6 outings standing at 4.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Atalanta:

• haven't lost in the league to Parma in their previous 9 matches. Quite a long unbeaten run against them.
• are undefeated in their last 3 home league matches.

Parma

DWDLLD

Previously, Parma drew 0-0 in the Serie A tie with SSC Napoli.

In that game, Parma managed 28% possession and 6 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. Napoli had 7 shots at goal with 2 on target.

The strike force from Parma have struggled for goals in their past six games, recording the poor return of just 4. In those fixtures, I Crociati have also seen the overall goal aggregate of their opponents equal 5. Nonetheless, we will just have to wait and see whether such a trend will continue on here in this match.

Their previous form shows that Parma:

• haven't won against Atalanta when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league matches. Not the best of away records.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 12 matches in the league. Their travelling support will be needed here, for sure.

↔️ Head to head

Checking on past results between these clubs stretching back to 31/03/2019 reveals that these encounters have ended in disappointment for Parma. They have not managed to come away with any wins whatsoever while Atalanta have been too good for them, running out winners in 100% of those matches played.

A lot of goals were also scored during this period, 26 in total at an average of 4.33 goals per meeting.

The last league clash between these sides was Serie A match day 13 on 23/11/2024 when it finished Parma 1-3 Atalanta.

In that match, Parma managed 45% possession and 9 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. Their only player on the scoresheet was Matteo Cancellieri (49').

At the other end, Atalanta had 15 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. Mateo Retegui (4'), Éderson (39') and Ademola Lookman (75') scored.

The referee was Gianluca Manganiello.

📰 Team News: Atalanta

Gianluca Scamacca (Hamstring injury), Giorgio Scalvini (Shoulder injury) and Sead Kolasinac (Cruciate ligament tear) will not be taking part for Atalanta gaffer Gian Gasperini.

It looks as if La Dea could opt for a 3-4-2-1 formation for the game with Rui Patricio, Odilon Kossounou, Isak Hien, Berat Djimsiti, Marco Palestra, Ibrahim Sulemana, Marco Brescianini, Matteo Ruggeri, Lazar Samardzic, Daniel Maldini and Mateo Retegui.

📋 Team News: Parma

We believe I Crociati could decide to elect for a 3-5-2 system, settling for Zion Suzuki, Alessandro Circati, Giovanni Leoni, Lautaro Valenti, Enrico Del Prato, Simon Sohm, Mandela Keita, Adrian Bernabe, Emanuele Valeri, Ange-Yoan Bonny and Mateo Pellegrino.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that Parma should get enough chances to find the net against this Atalanta outfit, but that might not be enough to avoid a loss.

We’re tipping a very close game with a 2-1 win for Atalanta at the end of the 90 minutes. Could easily see this go either way.
