Match Time & Date:

20:45
Prediction: 2-1
Verona
After suffering a shocking loss at Cagliari at the weekend, Atalanta will be aiming to keep their Champions League hopes alive when they take on Verona on Matchday 32. The Orobici are after their 11th home win of the process and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Mastini on Matchday 32. Defender Giorgio Scalvini remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home team.
The Mastini, on the other hand, are sitting in the danger zone ahead of the trip to Bergamo. As Verona were not at their sharpest in a 2-1 loss to Genoa at the weekend, we predict that the Champions-League-chasing hosts are going to pick up all three points from Monday’s encounter. Defender Giangiacomo Magnani is back from suspension, but midfielder Suat Serdar is sidelined through suspension. You should know that Atalanta are eyeing their fourth consecutive win over Verona in the national championship.
