Bologna - Atalanta betting tips and odds

The 3.60 odds on a home win result mark the hosts as clear underdogs. Things are fairly lopsided, in fact, so backing such an outcome would be quite a longshot.

With 2.18 odds for an away win, Atalanta have a rather clear path to victory. Still, there’s plenty of room for an upset in a match like this, so other options are still worth considering.

Bologna’s latest Serie A match could have gone much worse than the Roma defeat. Knowing they were priced at huge 6.00 to win, a narrow HT/FT loss is nothing to be too disappointed with.

Atalanta supporters had hoped for much more than a 2:2 draw from the previous Serie A match. Although they played away, Atalanta were given a good price to win (1.76). But they failed to use it after falling behind at the halftime break and never managing to fully recover from it (2:2).

Bologna have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Serie A matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

Maintaining their defences has been a bit of a struggle for Atalanta lately. They ended up conceding 5 goals over the 3 most recent matches alone, leaving many fans disappointed.

The visitors will be trying to move up to the top of the table while it’s still relatively early in the season. They’re currently in 7th place, 2 points behind a Europa qualification. They could end up dropping lower if they’re not careful, though - Bologna are hardly the underdogs in this matchup.

We’re in for an exciting showdown – due to a complete lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams have their full lineups at their disposal. Because they are more likely to win, though, this should work out in the visitors’ advantage.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.91 at bet365.
