Sassuolo vs Atalanta: prediction for the Serie A match
Sassuolo are unbeaten in two Serie A games. Can they build on their success and overcome Atalanta on Saturday? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Sassuolo

Sassuolo are having a bad season. At the moment, the Neroverdi are one of the main outsiders in the Italian elite. Alessio Dionisi's charges are in 16th place in the standings with 16 points, seven points clear of Verona. In the last game, though, Sassuolo created a real sensation - they crushed AC Milan (5:2) at San Siro, thus breaking the eight-game winless streak.

Atalanta

Atalanta failed to gain a foothold in the top four in the first half of the season, but after the winter break, Gian Piero Gasperini's men delivered some successful performances and climbed to the 4th line in the Serie A table. But their position is still vulnerable - Roma, who are 6th, are trailing La Dea by just one point. Earlier this week, Atalanta was knocked out of Coppa Italia by Inter Milan (0:1).

Tip and bets
Atalanta had a bad game against Inter in Coppa Italia, but other than that, they have looked convincing in their recent outings. Despite Sassuolo's amazing victory over AC Milan, we don't believe in the success of the home team. We will be backing the favourites.
Our prediction – Atalanta to win
After the winter break, Atalanta have been excellent on offense. We believe Sassuolo's defense will have a lot of work in this match. The Neroverdi are an attacking team, too, so this is likely to be a high-scoring game. Moreover, in the last three head-to-head games, there were at least three goals.
Second bet - total over 3 goals
