Two sides at contrasting ends of the Serie A standings will lock horns in the Italian top flight this weekend. Atalanta will be looking to bounce back from their previous defeat when they take on Udinese away from home.
It has been a reliable enough start to the Serie A season for Atalanta, as they sit in the mix for a European challenge this term. However, their form has evaded them slightly in recent weeks, as they have lost two of their last four. But, a return to winning ways on Sunday could see them move into the Champions League spots.
Udinese will take confidence from their recent form, as they have avoided defeat across their previous five. They also come into this match after picking up a first league win of the season in their previous fixture. A second straight success could see them move five point clear of the bottom three places in the current standings.
Udinese have been a tough nut to crack in Serie A this term, but their win last weekend ended a four-game drawing run. But, wins have been hard to come by in recent seasons for Udinese, which is evident by the fact that they haven’t won back-to-back games since landing victories against Empoli and AC Milan in March of last season.
Atalanta may sit in a solid position in the league standings, but they have lost four of their opening eleven matches for the first time since the 2018-19 season. Meanwhile, they haven’t recorded five defeats in their opening 12 matches since the 2014-15 season. But, they have kept three clean sheets in their previous six away matches in the league. They could keep back-to-back shutouts for the first time since September 2022 this weekend.
Atalanta boast a very impressive record in this fixture, as they are unbeaten in their last eleven matches against Udinese in the league. However, both fixtures between the sides last season ended in draws. Udinese’s most recent win against Atalanta was picked up in October 2017.
Atalanta’s record in this fixture could be very challenging to overlook this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with the away side landing a big victory to edge nearer toward the Champions League spots in the Italian top-flight.
