Analysis and prediction for Atalanta vs AC Milan: The home team avoids defeat.

Latest team news for Atalanta vs AC Milan

Gian Piero Gasperini, serving his second touchline ban, will be absent on Friday night, but his squad is almost full. Gianluca Scamacca is still recovering from a knee injury, while Davide Zappacosta is almost back from a muscle injury. Atalanta's top scorer, Mateo Retegui, who leads the Serie A top scorer list by three goals, will continue to partner Ademola Lookman and Charles De Ketelaere (former Milan player) in attack.

This match brings together four Serie A players with the most goal contributions in 2024: De Ketelaere (30), Lookman (30), Rafael Leao (28) and Christian Pulisic (27). Leao has scored three goals in Serie A this season, all in away games, and will partner with Pulisic and Samu Chukwueze (who scored two goals on Tuesday) to support Tammy Abraham. However, Alvaro Morata may start instead of Abraham.

After a few changes, Paulo Fonseca will field his strongest team, with only Ismael Bennacer, Alessandro Florenzi, and Luka Jovic absent, while Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez have returned to training.

Latest football match prediction: Atalanta vs AC Milan

The recent victory against Roma not only helped Atalanta maintain their position in the Scudetto race, just one point behind the leaders, but also brought them closer to the club's record of nine consecutive wins from 2020. Captain Marten De Roon and Nicolo Zaniolo scored in the 2-0 win at the Stadio Olimpico, continuing their impressive start to the 2024-25 season.

Atalanta currently have over 30 points after 14 Serie A matches, for the first time in the club's history, and are leading the scoring charts by five goals. Gian Piero Gasperini's side have scored at least two goals in their last 11 matches at the Gewiss Stadium and are preparing to face Milan. Charles De Ketelaere, who joined Atalanta from Milan, recently scored five goals in their 6-1 victory over Young Boys in the Champions League, where they remain unbeaten this season.

Atalanta are currently in the top eight teams that automatically qualify for the Champions League round of 16, two points ahead of Milan, and are in excellent form. Meanwhile, Milan, despite losing to Atalanta in their last encounter, have won four of their last eight Serie A matches. However, the Rossoneri are seventh in the league table after an inconsistent start to the season.

Under Paulo Fonseca's leadership, Milan are gradually regaining their form, with a victory over Real Madrid at the Bernabeu and a third consecutive win in the Champions League. In Serie A, they recently beat Empoli 3-0 thanks to a brace from Tijjani Reijnders, bringing their total number of clean sheets to six in their last 10 matches. However, Milan have only won two of their six away games this season, and facing Atalanta will be a major challenge to extend their winning streak.
