Atalanta vs Juventus Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 06/05/2023, 03:33  by Kennedy Kechula in Serie A Prediction

Juventus returned to winning ways in their last outing and will be hoping to build on it when they travel to Bergamo to face Atalanta in their next Serie A game. Third placed Juventus go into this game five points ahead of fifth placed Atalanta with both sides in the race for a top four finish. Atalanta will target three points in this game, which could lift them into the top four and coming into the game on the back of three straight wins, they will be very confident. In their last game, Atalanta rose from behind to beat Spezia 3-2. While they have been good in attack, scoring two or more in each of the last three matches, Atalanta will want to work on their defending, having failed to keep a clean sheet in eight matches. They have just one clean sheet in 10 games and both sides have scored in each of their last four matches.

In the last seven meetings with Atalanta, Juventus have managed just one win, a run they will want to better as they come here seeking three points to boost their top four race. A win in this game could lift Juventus to second spot in the standings and that will be their target after a 2-1 win over Lecce. That win was their first in six matches and only their third in 10 matches. It hasn’t been great for Juventus on the pitch and as they are also targeting silverware in the Europa League, things aren’t about to get easier. In each of their last six matches, Juventus have conceded, and they come into this game with just two clean sheets in 10 matches. In three of their last five matches, both teams have scored. Juventus will be more worried of their away form as they go into this game; they haven't won any of the last five, and failed to score in two.
