Atalanta vs Verona Match Preview

We are into the 33rd round of the Italian Serie A and Atalanta and Verona are the sides that are playing against each other in this Monday match. 

Atalanta are in 8th position having picked 51 points. They were beaten by two goals to nil in their last home game played which was in the UEFA Europa League against Leipzig. In the domestic league, they are also out of form as they have lost back-to-back games and now their top 6 finish looks in threat.

Atalanta will be without few players such as Cabezas, Maehle, Ilicic and Toloi. The missing of Ilcic will be considerable as he is a very good player. The top scorers for Atalanta in the league this season are Zapata and Pasalic who have both scored nine league goals. 

Verona, on the other hand, are just two places behind Atalanta having collected 45 points. Verona have struggled a lot away from home. They are winless in the last five away games played, losing two and drawing three. 

Verona will be without Pandur and Dawidowicz as both are injured. Berardi, Barak and Veloso are questionable. The top scorer in the league for Verona is Simeone who has scored 16 league goals and he is the third top scorer in Serie A.

The last head-to-head meeting between these sides here, at the home of Atalanta, ended in Verona winning by two goals to nil. I predict Verona would either win or draw in this one.
