Here's our Verona vs Atalanta Prediction analysis: Entering the final laps of the Italian Serie A, Verona welcome Atalanta to their humble abode – the Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi – for a crunch league clash, both sides desperate to deliver the three points. Expect a thrilling and entertaining affair in Veneto. With their title hopes thinning out slowly since the league restart, Atalanta had looked content settling for a top-four finish. However, a recent unexpected dip in form from Juventus has afforded La Dea a glimpse of hope in their race for the league title.

Scoring goals for fun, Gasperini’s charges are easily the highest scoring side in Europe having registered 93 goals, with England’s Man City following closely behind on 91. With five games left to play, Atalanta sit third on the log, and are just seven points adrift table-toppers Juventus.

Surely, they will be eyeing a string of victories over the remaining fixtures on the schedule. First off, the Goddess will need to dispatch tricky opposition Verona this weekend, to continue their unlikely push for Serie A success.

Finishing 5^th in the Serie B last season, Verona were made to scrap really hard through playoffs to make it all the way to the Italian top-flight. With many expecting the Mastiffs to struggle immensely in the Serie A, they have left us at a loss for words with their performances so far.

They currently sit ninth on the standings, a whopping nine points adrift the final Europa League spot, leaving their continental qualification hopes very uncertain. They will need a miracle of sorts to make it into top-seven before the end of the season. But miracles happen, don’t they?

Verona will be beating themselves up for dropping all three points in their previous game against fifth-placed AS Roma. In truth, they were not at their best and never really looked like winning the game. Completely outclassed from start to finish, they were narrowly dispatched 2-1 by La Lupa.
In brilliant goalscoring form heading into their last fixture against relegation contenders Brescia, Atalanta must have been licking their lips at the prospect of taking their weak opponent to the cleaners. Relaxed all through the game, the Goddess easily threw Brescia under the bus.

Pasalic was the cream of the crop for Gasperini’s charges, crowning an emphatic 6-2 victory with an excellent hattrick. As expected, de Roon and Zapata also got in amongst the goals as the Goddess move every closer to breaching the 100-goal mark.

For this fixture, Atalanta are huge favorites for the win. They are in outstanding form at the moment, and are showing no signs of slowing down. Verona’s defense will be scared to death, at the sight of the likes of de Roon, Pasalic and Zapata running straight at them.

They are a determined bunch, harboring faint hopes of breaking Juventus’ streak of title triumphs. They are on a 16-game unbeaten run, bagging a whopping 14 wins in that time. They are also in clinical attacking form, scoring no less than two goals in 15 of their preceding 16 league games.
Meanwhile, Verona are on a four-game winless run, remaining so in eight of their previous ten games. This highlights how horrendous the Scagliers have been since the league restart.
