Atalanta vs Lecce Match Preview

For the 23rd matchday of the Italian Serie A, Atalanta welcomes Lecce to the Gewiss Stadium.

Big win for Atalanta the previous matchday, they beat Lazio in Rome 2-0. They dominated from the start of the match, defensively they risked little while offensively apart from the goals they scored one in each half, they also had many opportunities to win with a bigger score.
An important victory for Atalanta in their attempt for a spot in the top four of the standings, reached 41 points and are tied for 4th place with Roma and 3 points away from Milan who prevailed in Monza of the local team on Saturday afternoon.

Last week's result is considered positive for Lecce, they were tied 1-1 at home against Roma. They took an early lead in the match, but at the end of the first twenty minutes, conceded the equalizer. Afterwards, the supremacy of the more qualitative Roma put them in a defensive position, but they held out until the end of the match.
This was the second match in a row for Lecce to stay away from defeat, reaching 24 points and keeping a safe distance of 7 points from the bottom three of the standings.

Atalanta are coming off a great win, they are very strong at home and score with ease. For their part, Lecce are fighting all their games and I think they will do the same tonight in Bergamo. My choice is Over 2.5 at odds of 1.85
