Atalanta - Hellas Verona predictions

Hellas Verona will have little to hope for against Atalanta. The home charges are bursting with confidence and it would take a small miracle for the away team to take anything from this game.

The situation is crystal clear from the current perspective. Given the strength of the home team and the fact Hellas Verona are given 7.50 betting odds to win, a conclusion is not difficult to reach. Anything but a home win would be an incredible surprise.

The hosts lacked decisiveness in their previous $LAGUE bout, which ultimately cost them what should have been easy 3 points. Top online bookies priced their away victory at 4.98 before kick-off, but they failed to get any leverage in the first half. Their opponents proceeded to take the lead in the late game, finishing the game 2:1.

The last time Verona played a Serie A match, it was a home game and an unfavourable matchup against Genoa. Their fans were hoping for a draw result after the undecided first half, but the game ultimately ended in a 1:2 defeat.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from Atalanta and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Verona’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

Placed number 6th on the current table, the hosts could certainly afford to move up a few spots and earn a Europa League qualification. They’ll need 5 points to do so, and it seems a reasonable goal with matchups such as these.

Hellas Verona find themselves placed 17th in the standings as thisSerie A season enters round 32. With little time for significant changes, the most they can hope for is to stay the course and avoid relegation. Considering they’ll be the clear underdogs in Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia, though, even that may be challenging.

Atalanta clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with Hellas Verona, but it was a rather narrow victory.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.73, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
