This looks like it could be a very interesting clash on Sunday and these Atlanta vs. Juventus predictions suggest that the fans at the Gewiss Stadium could be in for a treat.
1 – A draw – 29/20
2 – Over 2.5 goals scored – 17/20
3 – Both teams to score – 4/6
4 – Ademola Lookman to score anytime – 12/5
5 – Game to finish 2-2 – 12/1
It is well-known that Gian Piero Gasperini has not been happy with the way his Atalanta side have performed so far this season. There have been some very mixed results – against some of the weaker teams in Serie A – and La Dea need to improve if they are to push for Europe again.
The Bergamo club may have lost a number of key players over the summer, but there have been some big arrivals too and form needs to improve. The visit of Juventus may not be ideal timing for Atalanta, but it does give them a chance to show that they can compete this season.
With Juve also not on top form, this game could actually be a very interesting encounter, with a good chance that fans of both sides will be celebrating some goals. Ademola Lookman looks most likely to score for the home side and a bet on him to find the net at any time could be profitable.
Max Allegri, on the other hand, is still trying to work out which players he should be sending out onto the pitch. The ‘replacements’ that came in for the game against high-flying Lecce did very well and have pushed themselves into contention for another chance this weekend.
That win on Tuesday helped the Old Lady climb up into second place in the Serie A table, albeit temporarily, and make something of a mockery of the criticism faced by Allegri and his players.
That being said, Juventus have not been the most exciting team to watch this season and there is some definite need for improvement. They may not come away from Bergamo will all three points, but a more attacking look might make for a captivating game.

Atalanta (3-4-3): Musso; Tolòi, Kolašinac, Djimsiti; Zappacosta, Éderson, de Roon, Ruggeri; Koopmeiners, De Ketelaere, Lookman
Juventus (3-5-2): Szczęsny; Gatti, Danilo, Bremer; Weah, Rabiot, Fagioli, Locatelli, Kosticć; Vlahović, Chiesa
Gian Piero Gasperini may look to change a few things around after the game against Verona on Wednesday. But he does have a few injuries to some key players and could make minimal alterations for this visit of Juventus.
After dropping Federico Gatti for the Lecce game after his blunder against Sassuolo, Allegri could bring the defender back into the starting XI for this one. Dušan Vlahović could also get a recall, even though Arkadiusz Milik scored the winner in that one.
