Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Atalanta Win or Draw and Under 3.5 Goals – 1.55
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Over 9 Corners – 1.58
Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Correct Score Combination 2-1/ 3-1/ 4-1 – 3.01
Atalanta Win or Draw and Under 3.5 Goals
Looking at the h2h history, Atalanta won nine and drew ten of the last 25 meetings. Obviously, La Dea are having trouble beating Genoa in recent games with three of their four meetings ending in a draw. In addition, there is a 52% chance that there will be under 3.5 goals in this match.
Over 9 Corners
Despite finishing 0-0 the last time these two met, still there were 11 total corners in the game. Moreover, Atalanta’s average total corners per game this term is 9.26 while Genoa’s is 9.61. Thus we predict we will see over nine corners at the Gewiss Stadium on Sunday.
Correct Score Combinations 2-1/ 3-1/ 4-1
One of these scores was the final result in six of the last 12 meetings between Atalanta and Genoa. In addition, Atalanta won four times by one of these results and Genoa lost the same number of times by the same scores.

Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Atalanta vs Genoa
Atalanta were once third at the Serie A table and looked sure of finishing top-three. However, after one win in their last seven games and grabbing four points from the last five, La Dea are not guaranteed a top-four finish.
In addition, despite having a game in hand they are now sixth with 47 points six behind Juventus at fourth. As a result, Gasperini needs to act fast as his team can even lose a top-six finish since Lazio and Fiorentina are knocking at the door not far behind.
The story is completely different for Genoa whose coach Alexander Blessin is still undefeated since taking charge of the team. Nonetheless, five draws in a row are hardly enough for Genoa to survive in the top flight as the Rossoblu are searching for their second win of the season.
Gewiss Stadium is not the place to find that win as Genoa are winless in their last six visits there. Notably in defense Blessin did a great job since he came having conceded just two goals in five outings. But with the same number of goals scored in those games, it is obvious where Genoa’s problems lie.
Atalanta vs Genoa Prediction
This is a must-win game for both teams as they follow their opposite ambitions. Surely Gasperini knows that a slip-up here will cause huge damage to their European qualification chances. Thus the 64-year-old tactician will start the game with a full offensive strategy.
Alexander Blessin on the other hand, can’t seem to solve the puzzle of this winless streak with Genoa. Moreover, it doesn’t seem likely to be solved in Bergamo on Sunday.
To conclude, we predict an Atalanta win but will combine a double chance of a home win or daw and under 3.5 goals just in case.
Safe Bet
Atalanta play possession football which keeps the ball in midfield most of the time. Also, the fact that Genoa will play defensively and try to keep the ball away from their goal. During the season, La Dea usually are awarded 5.37 corners per game. Hence, backing under seven total corners for Atalanta with odds of 1.63 looks a safe bet.
Quick Rich
Three of the last four meetings between Atalanta and Genoa ended in a draw. Moreover, a draw has the most probability according to statistics with 44%. At Vbet the odds for a draw in this match is 4.90 which can be a good way for a quick profit.
Atalanta vs Genoa First Goalscorer
Despite the fact that Luis Muriel scored just five goals this season for Atalanta, the Colombian also had four assists. Obviously, injuries had their toll on the 30-year-old but we expect Muriel to be on target on Sunday and open the scoring.
