Prediction: 2-1
Cagliari
Atalanta started with a statement in their first match of the season by comprehensively beating the newly promoted Frosinone side 4:0. In their Week 2 match, they play Roma and after that Cagliari. Cagliari started this year’s Scudetto by losing 2:0 to Empoli, promoted from Serie B. They did better in the second match narrowly missing out on a win after Sassuolo scored in the ninth minute of time added on. These two teams will be evenly match when the match kicks-off at the Atleti Azzurri d’Italia Stadium. In their previous eight encounters they split the honours with each winning four times. So it’s not likely the game will finish tied, as the last time that happened was in 2013. Cagliari will have a chance as Atalanta will have to battle for the Europa League spot against FC Copenhagen on Thursday, just three days before the Scudetto game.
