Team Analysis
In their recent home game against Lecce, Atalanta may not have displayed exceptional brilliance, but they secured a three-pointer with a 1-0 victory. The team started the match somewhat passively, lacking creativity in the first half. However, they increased the tempo in the second half, a strategy that paid off as Lookman scored in the 58th minute, securing the lead. Although Lecce became more aggressive and created some decent chances, the scoreline remained unchanged.

Sassuolo faced AC Milan away in their previous match, resulting in a narrow 1-0 loss. Despite having less ball possession, the visitors looked decent in transition. However, Milan elevated their tempo when it mattered most, with Pulisic finding the net in the 59th minute. This left Sassuolo with a few semi-chances but unable to change the score. Sassuolo's poor run continues, having earned only one point in the last five Serie A matches.

Conclusion
Atalanta achieved their objective in the previous game, even if their overall performance lacked creativity. They enter the upcoming match aiming for another victory. Sassuolo's recent form has been less than positive, and their defensive stability remains questionable, especially when given space. The team from Bergamo is likely to come out on top, with Sassuolo facing concerns in Serie A and struggling to find decent form—though with cautious betting due to the modest stakes involved.
