Atalanta preview: Humiliated Bergamasci

Raffaele Palladino and his Atalanta players got a positive reception after their 6-0 defeat to Bayern Munich at home about ten days or so ago – but they were humiliated again, succumbing to a 10-1 aggregate loss in the UEFA Champions League round of 16.

That means that the Bergamasci are now winless in their last six matches across all competitions. Their most recent outing in Serie A saw them share a 1-1 draw with league leaders Internazionale at San Siro last weekend.

Hellas Verona preview: Woeful Verona

Hellas Verona begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting rock-bottom in the Serie A table and they are nine points adrift of Lecce with nine games to go, having managed just three victories throughout the campaign.

The visitors come into this one on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Genoa at the Bentegodi in their most recent outing last week due to second-half goals scored by Vitinha and Leo Ostigard.

Hellas Verona vs Atalanta prediction

Atalanta are winless in six matches. However, a third of those games have come against a relentless Bayern Munich side and three of the other four have been draws – with one away at Inter and one away at Lazio in the first-leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final. Verona are destined for the drop and have been very poor for a few seasons. Atalanta should ease themselves to a comfortable victory in Bergamo.
