Atalanta suffered a last-minute defeat (2-1) against Brugge in a dramatic match. The visitors failed to impose their football but could have earned a draw if Isak Hien had not conceded a penalty in the stoppage time.
After an unsuccessful start to the Serie A year, Atalanta have gradually improved their situation. They’ve grabbed seven points out of nine in the previous three rounds. Gian Piero Gasperini’s team are five points behind Napoli and could get even closer.
Marco Carnesecchi has recovered from injury. On Saturday, we expect him to return to the starting lineup. Ademola Lookman is still not ready to play, and his appearance in the squad is not expected until the next round.
Atalanta predicted lineup vs Cagliari (3-4-2-1): Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, Hien, Posch; Bellanova, Ederson, De Roon, Ruggeri; De Ketelaere, Brescianini; Retegui.
Cagliari have won two of their last three games in front of their fans. However, they’re not as good away, claiming only one victory in four months, which came against last-placed Monza.
Thanks to their recent home successes, Cagliari have managed to leave the relegation zone and widen the gap by four points. However, the fight for survival is just beginning.
Even after Zito Luvumbo’s return to action, the coach prefers to use Mattia Felici on the left in midfield. We expect that the 23-year-old will appear from the first minutes in Bergamo.
It’s also time for Nicolas Viola to rest, as against Parma, the veteran did not deliver his best. We expect the appearance of Gianluca Gaetano instead.
Cagliari predicted lineup vs Atalanta(4-2-3-1): Caprile; Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Augello; Adopo, Makoumbou; Zortea, Gaetano, Felici; Piccoli.
Bet hereIn each of the last five home matches, Atalanta have outscored their opponents in terms of possession percentage. However, they won only once, thrashing Sturm Graz with a score of 3-1.
Cagliari will happily give the initiative to the opponents and sit back in the defence. It’s a usual style of play for Davide Nicola’s teams. The head coach prefers a cautious approach, and against Atalanta, we don’t expect otherwise.
It should be noted that despite failures in away games, the hosts have not yet been defeated with a large score on the road in Serie A. They have only lost by two goals twice. Thus, we suggest picking Cagliari to win (+1.5) handicap.
Cagliari are capable of scoring against the visitors. In the last 10 away games of Serie A, Atalanta have only left the field without a goal on three occasions. They have not kept a clean sheet in their last six matches played on home soil.
The hosts’ top scorer this season is Roberto Piccoli, who’s scored seven goals in all competitions. It makes sense to pay attention to the 24-year-old forward on Saturday. The Italian still belongs to Atalanta and is probably eager to show himself in front of them.
While Cagliari are favourites, we’ll likely see an exchange of goals. Our second pick in this game would be both teams to score.
