Spezia - Atalanta betting tips and odds

It’s hard to see even the most ardent of Spezia fans expect a victory here. As clear underdogs, even a draw against Atalanta would be quite impressive, let alone an upset in the form of a home win.

The odds are clearly leaning in the away team’s favour, though the difference is by no means insurmountable. Spezia will have to give their all to come out on top, though, while Atalanta merely have to make sure not to make major mistakes.

Spezia were fighting an uphill battle against Hellas Verona in the previous round, which was especially clear during half-time. However, they proceeded to equalize and then take the lead in the later stages of the game, resulting in a stunning 1:2 away win.

Atalanta unexpectedly kept up with the visiting team, Inter, in their previous home game. However, they stumbled towards the end and had to contend with a narrow 2:3 defeat.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Atalanta have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Serie A. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

Atalanta should not have any issues claiming three points on Wednesday. Sitting in 6th place with $WINS wins to their name, they need as many triumphs as they can get in order to reach their European dreams.

Atalanta recorded several consecutive victories over Spezia in the previous season of the Serie A. When you also factor in that all of these were secured with a considerable goal advantage, it makes a lot of sense why Atalanta are considered the favourites in this game despite playing as the away team.

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.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.73 if you use the bet365 sportsbook.
