Monza - Atalanta predictions

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Monza are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

Details can make a big difference in matches like this one. One way for Atalanta to reach their goal in this game is to stick firmly to their game plan and execute it flawlessly.

Monza are coming off from a 0:0 draw in an away game at Bologna . Betting predictions for that game were heavily in their opponents’ favour, though, so the fact that they pulled off a draw both at half time and as the final result is a success, relatively speaking.

Atalanta will have been disappointed with the fact they only drew 2:2 in the previous round of the Serie A. They were seen as firm favourites against Hellas Verona with 1.52 betting odds stacked in their favour. They were on the right path towards victory after taking the lead in the first half but it all came to nothing as rivals managed to hold them to a draw.

After recording more than 5 concessions in the previous 3 home games alone, confidence in Monza and their ability to bank on home-field advantage is shaky.

Atalanta don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

A quick look at the previous season’s match history makes the 1.94 odds for an away win quite understandable. Atalanta handily beat Monza on multiple occasions, decisively proving to be the favourites in this matchup.

On top of being considered underdogs, the home team is forced to play with a limited roster. With Davide Bettella, Andrea Carboni, José Machín, Dany Mota, Danilo D'Ambrosio all unavailable due to injury, they have very limited means at their disposal to beat the odds.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
