Team situation and tactical predictions

In terms of personnel, both teams have suffered some losses. Atalanta will be without their main striker G. Scamacca due to a muscle injury. However, compared to Hellas Verona, the home team's losses are still relatively minor.

Visiting team Verona is facing a serious personnel crisis with as many as four key players absent, including A. Bella-Kotchap, D. Bradaric, S. Lovric, and S. Serdar. The absence of key players in both defense and midfield makes the hopes of earning points for the visiting team more tenuous than ever.

Based on statistical data, Atalanta has a very high chance of winning or at least drawing. Experts predict that the home team will control the game, while Verona will try to play defensively to seek a valuable point.

• Predicted winner:Atalanta win or draw
• Predicted odds:Atalanta win (50%), Draw (50%), Verona win (0%)
• Expected goal difference:Atalanta scored under 2.5 goals; Verona scored under 1.5 goals.
