Atalanta vs Salernitana Prediction 18.12.2023

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: 18.12.2023
• Kickoff: 19:45 UTC / 20:45 CET
• Venue: Gewiss Stadium (Bergamo)

Atalanta seems to have stagnated a bit in the past few seasons, including this one, but this is a team with great potential and a lot of talent, so it is not excluded that they will break into the top of Italian football again. Even with such a bad description, Atalanta got through the group stage of the Europa League without any problems and from 1st place reached the 1/8 finals of this competition. They are in the 8th place in the Serie A, which is not so bad, and they ended their streak of 3 matches without a win in the previous round against Milan at home 3-2

Before the start of the season, Salernitana was one of the clubs that was given the least chance to survive in the league, and for now they are fulfilling that projection. This club is in the last place in the table with only 8 points taken so far and they won only once in 15 matches played. Udinese is only 4 points away from the safe zone, but it seems that even those 4 points are a huge difference for a team that rarely wins. In the previous two rounds, Salernitana lost against Bologna and Fiorentina.

Atalanta vs Salernitana pick: ATALANTA TO COVER AH -1.5

The club from Bergamo lost two matches in this stadium this season, but against strong teams like Inter and Napoli. In matches against rivals like Salernitan, they haven't had too many problems so far, and last season they actually defeated the club from Salerno 8-2. Salernitana lost 5 of their last 6 away games and it would be a real feat if they could get a positive result at this stadium. Apart from Atalanta's victory, we expect it to be with a 2 or 3 goal difference
