Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Bologna and Atalanta face each other at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara in the closing match of Serie A round 17. The Rossoblu are stuck in the middle of the table with 19 points on their account, but they were more than unfortunate not to grab something from the Roma game. As always, a man to watch in the home team will be Marko Arnautovic, who has netted eight goals in the Serie A so far this term. This match will be very emotional for the hosts, who will pay tribute to Sinisa Mihajlovic, the tragically passed away ex boss.
All Bardi, Barrow, Bonifazi, De Silvestri, and Zirkzee have been struggling with injuries of late. Atalanta, on the other hand, came from two goals behind to share the spoils with Spezia. Since the Orobici looked sharp in front of goal in the last league match, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Duvan Zapata is unlikely to feature for the visitors after limping off with injury against Spezia, while both Hojlund and Pasalic should be recalled to the starting XI.
