Two teams locked together in the Serie A standings will clash in Bergamo on Saturday, when Atalanta and Cagliari face each other at New Balance Arena. In recent seasons, this would've been see as a gilt-edged opportunity for the hosts, but given what we've seen from the Bergamo boys in recent weeks, I'm not so sure that they'll be expecting themselves to win without a fuss. Sure, Raffaele Palladino's men did defeat Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League during the week, a result which should spark confidence in the home locker room, but domestically, it's been a struggle at times. 

The visitors will turn up at New Balance Arena having won last time out, so they should be feeling pretty good about themselves, especially as they're not immediately threatened with the relegation zone. On a less positive note, Fabio Pisacane's men are without an away-day success since September. An interesting game awaits.

Our Atalanta vs Cagliari Prediction

Let's face it, the hosts are not thriving right now, so there's every chance that the visitors go to Bergamo and cause a few problems. One player who should fancy himself to cause issues for the hosts is Sebastiano Esposito, who has been in excellent shooting form of late, recently hitting the target against Juventus, Roma and Napoli. 

In addition to regularly getting himself into great shooting positions, the young forward has scored in each of his last two, so he'll head to New Balance Arena feeling confident, making odds of -105 look too good to resist. 

Our Atalanta vs Cagliari Pick: Sebastiano Esposito 1+ Shots on Target.
