Atalanta remain the best scoring team in league with 49 goals (2.58 on average). On the topic of wins, eight of Atalanta’s ten league victories have seen them register over 2.5 goals.
Spal travel after losing five of their last six SA matches while scoring only 12 league goals.
Team up towards the Top VS Team that is Rock Bottom
The final game of the weekend in Italy takes place on Monday night when Atalanta host Spal. This puts together a team up towards the top of the table against the team that is rock bottom right now. Atalanta are in good form. They come here with four wins and a draw from their last six games, and the European places, in particular, the top four, will be their aim once again this season.
Spal have struggled all season, they come here with one win and five defeats from their last six, and a total of just three wins from their 19 games this season. The good news for them is that they are only three points away from safety, and that has to be their main focus moving forward. There are a handful of teams in trouble at the bottom of Serie A, and Spal are certainly one of them.
However, this is an incredibly difficult game for them, with Atalanta playing well, and we fancy the home side to win here. We are going to back them to win this game to nil, they have kept three clean sheets from their last six games, and Spal have not scored in three of their last six, so the stats point to this.
Atalanta have won four of their last six games, with just one defeat in that period while Spal come into the weekend rock bottom with just three wins all season
Players to Watch
Robin Gosens: Atalanta Defender scored goals in two consecutive SA matches. He has already scored six league goals in total.
Andrea Petagna: Spal Forward (who joined Spal from Atalanta in July 2019) has found the net six times. It should be noted that Spal has scored only twelve goals in total. That means Petagna is the author of half of them.
