Atalanta vs Lazio Prediction & Tips
Atalanta are in third place with 58 points and show one of the best performances in the league in terms of goals scored and goals conceded. The team has scored 63 goals and conceded just 29. Despite recent defeats to Fiorentina and Inter, Gian Piero Gasperini’s side continue to play confident football. Their away form is particularly impressive, with 10 wins in 16 games, the best record in the league. At home, however, Atalanta are less stable, with 7 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats. In the last five matches, the team has scored 9 goals and conceded only 3, keeping three clean sheets.
In the upcoming match, Atalanta will be without Kossounou, Posch, Scalvini and Scamacca, who are still recovering from injuries.
Lazio occupies the seventh position in the table with 52 points. The team is in a tight battle with Roma and Fiorentina for places in the European competitions. The current form is worrying: in the last five matches, only one win, three draws and a crushing 0-5 defeat against Bologna. In this period, Lazio have scored 5 goals and conceded 9. In none of these matches did the team manage to keep a clean sheet. Away, Lazio have managed 8 wins in 15 games, but their shaky defensive play could be a key problem in the match against Atalanta.
Notably, the team remains in contention in the Europa League, where they have reached the quarter-finals and next week will face Norwegian side Bodø/Glimt.
