On Wednesday, starting with 17:30, the Juventus – Atalanta match will be played, within the round with number 12 in Serie A.
“Old Lady” managed, once again, to tie 2 consecutive victories in Serie A! The “black and whites” come after the successes recorded with Torino (2-1) and Genoa (3-1), victories that brought Juventus to the 4th position, with 23 points won. At 4 lengths behind the AC Milan leader, Andrea Pirlo’s team can no longer afford to lose precious points in the fight to win the championship in Serie A. The dispute for the seasonal triumph seems fiercer than ever, and any point at stake – more chosen against an extremely valuable team like Atalanta, can weigh decisively. Therefore, there is no doubt that the Turinese will take the dispute on Wednesday night with the utmost seriousness.
On the other hand, in turn, Atalanta comes after a success that brought to Bergamo the necessary dose of morale for Gasperini’s team before a trip to Turin. The 3-0 victory at home against Fiorentina may represent, according to the Peninsula press, the “trigger” that Atalanta needed to “adjust its speed”. Despite the fact that Juventus will approach with the best first 11 available, guests can also take advantage of the “complex” that Juve has created in terms of direct disputes, in which the “Old Lady” is without a victory in 4 from the last 5 matches! Taking into account these aspects, our team chose to bet on the number of goals and to avoid “classic” bets.
Juventus (3-4-1-2): Szczesny – Danilo, Bonucci, De Ligt – Cuadrado, Rabiot, Bentancur, Alex Sandro – McKenzie – Morata, Ronaldo;
Atalanta (3-4-1-2): Gollini – Toloi, Romero, Djimsiti – Hateboer, De Roon, Freuler, Gosens – Pessini – Malinovskyi, Zapata.
Atalanta, undefeated in 4 of the last 5 direct matches;
Juventus comes after 4 consecutive victories in all competitions;
Atalanta, without failure in 17 of the previous 18 trips.
