Atalanta vs Como prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - September 24, 2024
As part of the fifth round of the Italian Serie A, a match will take place between Atalanta and Como. The game will be held in Bergamo on Monday, September 23. The kickoff is scheduled for 20:45 Central European Time. The prediction for this match has been prepared by Dailysports experts.
Atalanta
In recent years, Atalanta has established itself as one of the strongest teams in Italy, even winning its first-ever European trophy. These successes are linked to Gasperini, who is now bringing fresh talent into his squad.
Atalanta plays entertaining football and scores quite a lot. However, the team has defensive issues and has not always achieved the desired results in the opening matches of this season. In the Champions League, they started with a home draw against Arsenal.
Como
Como had an interesting transfer campaign and significantly strengthened their squad after being promoted. The focus has been on signing experienced players, but so far, Fabregas' team has little to boast about.
With just two points from their first four matches, Como has found itself in the relegation zone, but the team doesn't seem hopeless. Avoiding a relegation battle will be tough, but there are prospects.
Match Facts
- Atalanta has only two wins in six matches this season.
- Como has not won in seven consecutive matches.
- Atalanta averages 1.5 goals per game at home, while Como averages 0.3 goals per game on the road.
Probable Lineups
- Atalanta: Carnesecchi, Kolašinac, Djimsiti, Bresciannini, Zappacosta, Ederson, de Roon, Bellanova, De Ketelaere, Lookman, Retegui.
- Como: Reina, Moreno, Kempf, Dossena, Lovino, Roberto, Perrone, Da Cunha, Pas, Belotti, Cutrone.
Head-to-Head
Como has never beaten Atalanta: two draws and four losses. The teams haven't faced each other in Serie A for over 20 years.
Prediction
Atalanta should confidently take all three points in this game. "La Dea" clearly outclasses the ambitious newcomer, so I suggest betting on a home win with a -1 goal handicap.
