How To Read And Understand The Odds

3y ago

Following their shocking defeat to relegation-threatened SPAL last week, the visitors will be looking to bounce back to winning ways with a resounding victory over tough customers Torino.

Meanwhile, Torino are no slouch. They have been pretty decent in their games so far, sitting comfortably in ninth place after 19 games.

With home advantage under their belt, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men will be looking to cause a major upset against this inspired Atalanta side. For that, they will have their work cut-out.

Desperate to get back on track following their relapse last week, Atalanta will be looking to drag their opponent to the cleaners, in a bid to get all three points on board. Expect an exciting game at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino come Sunday evening.

Torino vs Atalanta Team News

The notoriously unpredictable Granata failed to land their third consecutive Serie A win as they fell to a 1-2 defeat at the hands of Sassuolo. Though touted by the media as huge favorites for the win, they fell short of their primary objective, losing painstakingly to this struggling Sassuolo side.

To be fair, Walter Mazzarri probably prepped his boys for Berardi-less Neroverdi, but his two-match ban was reduced a day before the game, and he ended up scoring the winning goal. That is just total madness!

Torino, now sitting at 9th position, head into this match having won four of their last seven Serie A outings. A pretty impressive record, the Maroons will be looking to add another victory to their already outstanding tally.

Il Toro have earned fourteen points from ten home matches this season, netting a goal per bout and conceding 1.20 in return.

Their last home game saw them edge out Bologna in thrilling fashion. Bagging a goal early in the game, Torino were made to defend hard to hold on to their lead, a feat they achieved in unbelievable fashion.

Atalanta, on the other hand, will be eager to bounce back from a shocking 1-2 home defeat to, back then, last-placed SPAL. Prior to that, La Dea enjoyed a three-game winning run at the Gewiss Stadium and won three of the last six league matches.

With 35 points on the board, Atalanta have slipped to fifth place in the standings as Roma smashed Genoa 3-1 to move into Champions League spot. However, you will be doing yourself no favours by ruling out this team from a top-four chase.

Atalanta are one of the most dangerous away sides in the competition with five wins, four draws and one defeat, averaging impressive 2.10 goals scored per bout, whilst allowing 1.20.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Torino: Daniele Baselli, Cristian Ansaldi, Simone Zaza, Ola Aina, Tomás Rincón.

Atalanta: Timothy Castagne.

Torino - 4.52

Torino vs Atalanta Predictions

Torino managed to shut down Atalanta’s ferocious attack last season, beating them 2-0 at home and drawing 0-0 in Bergamo, but their September clash at Ennio Tardini was quite different as we witnessed a five-goal thriller, three ending up in La Dea’s net.

I’m positive Saturday’s match will be just as exciting, so I’m picking BTTS – Yes as my main bet.

Lastly, I’ll pick the guests to net two or more. I don’t think they will be affected by last week’s defeat – they had an off day and it’s time to move on. Atalanta have scored two goals or more in seven of their ten away games this season.
