Atalanta vs Salernitana Predictions

• Only Juventus, Inter Milan and Napoli have managed to leave Atalanta with points in Serie A.
• Salernitana are winless on their travels in the league (D2, L5).
• Salernitana have failed to score in all of their away Serie A losses.

La Dea looking towards European spots

Atalanta can focus on forcing their way into the European places in Serie A over the next few months after securing a place in the last 16 of the Europa League.

La Dea’s 4-0 win over Rakow in midweek guaranteed top spot in their group and means they will avoid a Champions League team in a playoff round, and they head into the visit of rock bottom Salernitana seeking a third straight win in all competitions.

Atalanta can win without conceding

Atalanta are the heavy favourites to win so the best way to get some value out of this Serie A clash could be backing a home win to nil.

La Dea have won four of their seven home games and only the top sides have managed to deny them maximum points in Bergamo. They have drawn with Juventus at the Gewiss Stadium and lost to Inter Milan and Napoli, while they overcame AC Milan 3-2 in their last home game – and those four heavyweights are the only Serie A sides to score as a visiting team against Atalanta this term.

Bottom club Salernitana are unsurprisingly woeful travellers as they have just two points to show from seven trips. I Granata have failed to score in all five of their away losses, so backing Atalanta to win to nil looks a strong option here.

Atalanta have hit seven goals across their last two games and can win fairly comfortably here. Salernitana have suffered two 3-0 defeats in their last four away from home so a 3-0 home win appeals.

Ademola Lookman scored twice against Milan and should come into this game fresh after a night off on Thursday in the Europa League, so Atalanta’s Nigerian forward looks the best option for an anytime goal.
