ITALY: Serie A
Last year's Serie B winner Empoli was slowed down after two promising wins in a row at the home against a strong AS Roma, where they lost 0-2 in the last round. Their results so far this year are like a roller coaster (3 wins, 4 losses), with conceding at least two goals in four home appearances (1 win, 3 losses). It doesn't look good ahead of the clash with Atalanta, who are still somewhat below expectations.
Last time the team from Bergamo lost at home to AC Milan (2:3), the game was affected by two crazy mistakes (one in the first minute and the other at the end of the first half). Two goals in the final moments of the match did not change the result and Atalanta have to start again after a promising draw at Inter (2:2).
If coach Gasperini's players do not win at the stadium of Empoli, their goal of attacking the championship title this year will quickly take its toll. The visitors will have to do without European champion Pessina (for two whole months), but again they have the Muriel - Zapata duo at their disposal for the first time in a long time, which should have an impact on the final number of goals in the home side's net.
My bet:
Atalanta @ 1.65 (bet365)
