Atalanta to Win
There is a 40% chance for Atalanta to win this match as they won four of their last ten games in all competitions. In addition, La Dea are undefeated in their last three visits to Verona.
Under 3.5 Goals
The last five games between Verona and Atalanta ended in under 3.5 goals. Moreover, three of the four games played by both teams this season also ended in the same number of goals
Correct Score Group Bet 1-2, 1-3, 1-4
The last two matches between these clubs ended with a score of 1-2. Additionally, last season, Verona’s five home matches and Atalanta’s seven away games ended with one of the suggested results.
Verona
With the 1-1 away draw at Bologna in the previous round, Verona picked up their first point of the season. The Gialloblu are still looking for their first win of the season having lost their opening match at home to Napoli 2-5.
Nevertheless, it’s marginally a better start than last season when Verona lost their first three games. Coach Gabriele Cioffi hopes he solved his team’s defensive issues in the first game when they conceded five. However, Atalanta are also a strong offensive team and the Gialloblu must do better than their 1.53 goals conceded at home the last term.
Atalanta
The second half of last season was disastrous for Atalanta as they won just four games in 18 matches. Moreover, La Dea didn’t have any clean sheets in their last nine fixtures in Serie A.
Comparatively, Atalanta had the exact same start this season as last one, a win followed by a draw. In the previous round, coach Gasperini was happy his team managed to hold off champions AC Milan to a 1-1 draw despite being dominated throughout the game.
Atalanta were the black horse of the league in recent years. The bookies are favoring the team from Bergamo to win after a fine start to the season and we predict likewise.

In the last four Serie A fixtures, Atalanta scored two or fewer goals and the same trend happened in the last five h2h meetings. With odds of 1.53 at 22Bet, we will back Atalanta to score under two goals.
Duvan Zapata has been a key player in Atalanta’s attack since joining in 2018 on loan and then permanently in 2020. The Colombian has played 82 games for La Dea and scored 37 goals. Zapata is a very strong and quick player who can trouble any defense coach Gasperini is highly fond of him.
Verona will be without Marco Faraoni with an ankle injury, Roberto Piccoli with a hamstring injury, Pawel Dawidowicz with a muscle injury, and Federico Ceccherini with a sprained ankle.
As for Atalanta, Djimsiti with a calf injury, Carnesecchi with a shoulder injury, Jose with a hamstring injury, and Zappacosta also with hamstring problems are all out.
