Atalanta have won twelve of their eighteen games on the road this season and have to be respected, with La Dea often proving to be unpredictable opponents and it’s a high stakes game for Milan at this stage of the season. Compare this to the fact that Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have flailed at home this term.
The Bergamo side have literally won four of their eighteen games at home this season but they will head to the San Siro looking for a victory and the aim is to finish ahead of Lazio in fifth place even if the Champions League isn’t going to be on the cards for them next term.
Are Milan a Good Bet to Beat Atalanta?
Milan are two wins away from claiming a first Scudetto in eleven seasons. However, the task is far from simple. A home clash against Atalanta is followed by an away game at Sassuolo, with the eighteen-time champions possibly needing to win both fixtures in order to remain ahead of Inter.
Milan’s home record is far from convincing considering that eleven wins from eighteen games at the San Siro doesn’t smack of confidence, although they certainly have the belief after that recent spate of victories and they have conceded on just a dozen occasions in front of their own fans.
Atalanta Boasting Four Match Unbeaten Run
Atalanta have built up their own head of steam in recent weeks. They claimed a 3-1 win away to Unione Venezia before a 4-4 draw against Torino to illustrate their attacking strengths and defensive weaknesses. Then came a 1-1 draw against Salernitana before a 3-1 victory away to Spezia.
Luis Muriel has been a regular source of goals for the past few games and he has scored four goals in as many games. We think Milan might have to meet fire with fire and perhaps the best wager of all is to bet on the Over 2.5 Goals quote.
