Atalanta form and stats

Atalanta have collected 10 points from their Serie A home games so far after 3-1-3. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Gewiss Stadium.

Atalanta's previous game was a Serie A match also played at home, ending 5-0 versus Milan (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Bologna.

As mentioned above, Atalanta "killed" Milan in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Atalanta handle that role? We have found seven games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W3-D2-L2.

Goals are plentiful at Gewiss Stadium in the league this season as Atalanta has scored 18 goals here in 7 home games. Atalanta have conceded 14 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Milan form and stats

The visitors are W4-D0-L4 on the road this term. That's in the Serie A.

Milan have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 224 minutes ago. G. Bonaventura was the goal scorer.

Two away games in a row for Milan, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-5 versus Atalanta in the Serie A. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Sassuolo.

Milan lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.

Milan are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of nine matches.

Milan have scored 9 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Milan have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Atalanta - Milan 5-0. Atalanta-Milan H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Atalanta 3 wins, Milan 2 wins, 5 draws. 5 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
