Atalanta vs Cremonese Predictions

Atalanta can shut down visitors

Atalanta should be backed to beat Cremonese and keep a clean sheet in Monday’s Serie A clash at the Gewiss Stadium. The visitors have blanked in six of their last seven away games and Atalanta have kept out their opponents in six of their last eight league matches.

Atalanta are eight places above Cremonese in the table, with 13 points separating the two teams. Atalanta sit seventh with nine wins, nine draws and five losses, while Cremonese are 15th with five wins, eight draws and ten defeats.

Atalanta have won five of their last six home games in Serie A, while Cremonese have not won in nine league matches. These are tough times for Cremonese, with five of their last seven matches ending in defeat.

The visitors’ struggles in front of goal are a major concern. Cremonese have failed to score in five successive away games and have been kept at bay in their last four Serie A matches. They have gone goalless in losing five of their last seven league matches.

Atalanta have been impressive defensively at home this season, conceding just nine goals in 12 Serie A games – an average of 0.75 goals per game. They have kept four clean sheets in their last six matches.

A narrow 1-0 victory for Atalanta looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score market. Seven of Atalanta’s last eight Serie A games have ended with under 2.5 goals and Cremonese have lost 1-0 on two of their last three away trips.
