Sampdoria - Atalanta betting tips and odds

There is a big reason why Sampdoria are given 5.25 to win this game. They stand little to no chance emerging victorious against Atalanta and anything but their defeat would be considered a miracle.

We are most likely going to see this match being won by Atalanta. They have a solid advantage over their opponents – at least according to the betting odds. That said, we’ve definitely seen much bigger surprises in the Serie A but such a scenario is not entirely likely in this fixture.

Sampdoria’s latest Serie A outing at Lazio did not go their way, though it can’t be used to accurately represent their form. They were fighting an uphill battle as visitors against the much stronger side, who took an early lead and secured a 1:0 victory.

Atalanta’s performance in the first 45 minutes of their latest Serie A match was quite underwhelming. This was in stark contrast to the decisive victory they carved out in the second half, though, ending their home match against Napoli with an impressive 4:2.

The most relevant bit of history we have for Atalanta is their high concession rate at recent home games. After more than 5 goals conceded in 3 games, their fans have warranted concerns over the squad’s defensive performance.

Atalanta are in contention for the UEFA qualifying spots – they’re currently placed 5th. Luckily for their supporters, online sportsbooks are predicting an away win for them this Sunday, which would be very helpful if they wish to climb the ranks.

The visitors may seem to be favourites according to the odds, but the matchup’s history tells a wildly different story. They already clashed this season, and Sampdoria pulled off an impressive victory and a major upset as far as betting predictions go.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

Priced at 4.75 with bet365, a Draw/Away wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best offer in terms of betting value. It’s still quite risky, mind you, so we don’t recommend putting up a huge stake.
