Atalanta vs Athletic Club Prediction
Atalanta Form
Atalanta collected two wins and a draw from their last three matches, as they ran out 0-2 and 2-0 winners against Bologna and Torino, respectively. Against Pisa, they had to settle for a draw as the match finished even with a 1-1 scoreline. Atalanta claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Champions League. They also drew one and lost two, as they scored 12 and conceded eight goals.
Athletic Club Form
Athletic Club were only able to take a single draw from their past three games. They came up short in a 5-0 defeat against Barcelona before drawing 3-3 with Cultural Leonesa. They were defeated once again, when Mallorca ran out 3-2 winners. Athletic Club only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Champions League. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by ten goals to four.
Atalanta took seven points from their last three encounters with teams from the bottom half of the Champions League table. This amounts to two wins after scoring five times and conceding one.
Atalanta have built up a nice momentum, and we doubt Athletic Club are capable of getting in the way of the home side at New Balance Arena, as we aim for the home win.
