Atalanta vs Venezia Prediction

Atalanta most recently annihilated struggling Empoli by five goals to nil in Florence last weekend and they also defeated Hellas Verona by the same scoreline earlier this month. Those are just two of four victories in their last 15 matches across all competitions in a run of form that has seen them eliminated from both the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Champions League. They now face a Venezia side that are destined for the drop, beginning this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting six points adrift and another heavy Atalanta victory is to be expected for this one.
