Atlanta will be back in Serie A action this weekend, as they look to continue their fine recent form in the Italian top flight. However, they could have a difficult challenge on Saturday, as Bologna has impressed in recent weeks and will be looking to go a fourth match without defeat.
Serie A Preview
Atalanta remains in the hunt for a Champions League finish this term, but they will likely need to maintain their recent hot run of form to achieve that goal. They come into this fixture having won each of their previous two, which was an excellent response after failing to win in three. Despite that form, they remain sixth in the Serie A standings, and will need a victory this weekend to fend off competition from Juventus.
Atalanta will also need maximum points this weekend to keep their hopes alive for a Champions League finish, as they currently sit two points off Inter Milan. However, the hosts this weekend were in excellent form in their previous fixture, as they recorded a fine 3-1 success on the road against Cremonese. Marten de Roon, Jeremie Boga, and Ademola Lookman netted the goals in that success.
Bologna is one of the teams that could mount a late challenge for a European finish this term, as they currently sit eighth in the Serie A standings. They are currently eight points off Atalanta, but have been in fine recent form after going three without a defeat. However, over that period, their only win was recorded last weekend.
They were excellent in that previous fixture, as they eased to a 3-0 home win over Udinese. Stefan Posch and Nikola Moro scored goals in the opening 12 minutes, before the points were settled four minutes into the second half following a Musa Barrow effort.
Atalanta vs Bologna Head to Head
Atalanta has an excellent recent record in this fixture, as they have gone six without defeat against Bologna. Over that run, they have recorded four wins, which includes victories in each of the previous two. The reverse fixture this term was won 2-1 by Atalanta in January.
Atalanta vs Bologna Prediction
This is likely to be a low-scoring fixture between the two Serie A sides this weekend. Bologna has been difficult to beat in recent weeks, but we find it hard to bet against a victory for the home side on Saturday.
