Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Verona and Atalanta take on each other at Stadio Marc’ Antonio Bentegodi in a highly-anticipated Serie A game. The Mastini aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Milan and Sassuolo, and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against the Orobici. Verona are a real force to be reckoned with at home, but keep in mind that all Kalinic, Colley, Ruegg, and Vieira are sidelined with injuries.
The Orobici, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Inter, with the team beating Spezia 3-1 in their last league match. Atalanta are eager to retain their spot in top four, but given Verona’s attacking potential, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Both Sutalo and Hateboer are out of contention through injuries, but there are no suspended players in the away team ahead of the trip to the “City of Love”.
