Two teams that are desperate for a win face off on Sunday and these Atalanta vs. Salernitana predictions suggest a home win. La Dea have been tumbling down the table but could revitalise their form against an out-of-form Salernitana.
Atalanta vs. Salernitana odds
1 – Atalanta to win – 4/9
2 – Both teams to score – 11/13
3 – Over 2.5 goals – 5/8
4 – Ademola Lookman to score – 2/1
5 – Atalanta to score a penalty – 3/1
Salernitana take on Atalanta this weekend looking for their first Serie A win in five games. The hosts have been little better in recent weeks, meaning Sunday’s clash could be a turning point for either side.
Davide Nicola’s team remain comfortably mid-table, with a nine point cushion separating them from the relegation zone. However, with the season not yet at the midway point, the Granata will be concerned with their form.
For Atalanta, a strong start to the season has completely fallen apart with just one win since the end of October. Gian Piero Gasperini will be very aware that Sunday marks a valuable opportunity to get back on track in what is a relatively easy run for La Dea. Atalanta are strong favourites and our tip to win at the Gewiss Stadium.
Despite their status as underdogs, Salernitana will by no means be intimidated by their weekend opponents. Atalanta have conceded two goals or more in four of their last five games, while Davide Nicola’s side boast the best attacking record in the bottom half of the table.
As a result, a punt on the hosts to break the deadlock could well pay off. Previous encounters between the two sides have been low scoring. But given the poor defensive form of both teams, a bet on over 2.5 goals and both teams to score may be worth a gamble.
Atalanta will be looking towards Ademola Lookman to ensure the goals swing the game in their favour. The English forward was left out from the start against Bologna but is Atalanta’s leading goalscorer.

Atalanta team news
Davide Zappacosta made his return from injury on the bench against Bologna and may start on Sunday afternoon. Gian Piero Gasperini has no further injuries to contend with but may look to rotate the side following the Monday night match in Bologna.
Salernitana team news
Lassana Coulibaly returns following suspension and will be in contention to start in midfield. Luigi Sepe, Giulio Maggiore and Pasquale Mazzocchi are all still sidelined through injury though, meaning Davide Nicola is unlikely to make many changes.
