On Sunday evening, two of Serie A’s toughest teams to beat go head-to-head, as Genoa and Atalanta clash at the Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris.
Genoa looking to continue an unbeaten run
The home team currently sit in 12th place in the Serie A table, seven points adrift of the European spots in the Italian top-flight. They are also 11 points clear of the relegation zone.
Alberto Gilardino’s team has been difficult to beat lately in the Italian top flight, as they head into this game on the back of an eight-game unbeaten run in Serie A, having recorded three wins and five draws in the run.
However, their recent outings in the Italian top flight have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last ten matches in Serie A.
Genoa have been stubborn opponents on home soil of late in Serie A, as they are unbeaten in their previous seven league matches on home soil.
Atalanta in red-hot form
The Nerazzurri head to Genoa in red-hot form, as a 3-1 home win over Lazio last time out was their fourth straight victory in all competitions.
The win also means that they are unbeaten in seven competitive games, having recorded six wins and a draw.
A record of six wins in their last seven games in the Italian top flight has also moved Gian Piero Gasperini’s team up to fourth place in Serie A, the final Champions League qualification spot.
Despite their recent solid form, Atalanta are winless in four away games in the Italian top-flight, having claimed just two draws and suffered two defeats in the underwhelming run.
What does Forebet predict?
Forebet predicts that Atalanta will continue their recent excellent form by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
