Atalanta vs Juventus Prediction 15 May 2024

🔊Atalanta and Juventus are set to compete in the final of the Italian Cup at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Atalanta is entering the match in great form, while Juventus has been facing doubts about their playing style and the future of the team. However, there is no clear favorite for the match, which only adds to the excitement of the encounter.

Losses
Atalanta will be missing defender Emil Holm, who sustained an injury a month ago. Additionally, Sead Kolasinac continues to be sidelined after getting injured in May, causing him to miss two games.

On the Juventus side, three defenders are ruled out due to injuries. Mattia De Sciglio has only played in one match this year and remains unavailable. Danilo and Alex Sandro, who have featured more frequently for Juventus, also joined the injury list in May.

Head To Head Meetings
Juventus have been dominant in their past matchups, winning 60 percent of their previous games. However, this season, Juventus has not been able to defeat Atalanta, with both of their games in the Serie A ending in a draw. Given the current form of both teams, it is safe to assume that Atalanta will not lose.

Trends

• The total of more than 1.5 goals played in 7 matches of the Atalanta team in a row.
• Atalanta has scored in 7 consecutive matches.
• Atalanta has been offside more than 0.5 times in 13 of the last 14 matches.

Corners
On average, Atalanta generates 5.4 corners per game, while Juventus slightly edges them with 5.6 corners per game. Based on this statistic, betting on a total of more than 9.5 corners per game seems like an excellent choice for this fixture.

Team Previews
Atalanta has attracted a lot of attention with their impressive late-season performance under Gian Piero Gasperini. Not only have they made it to the final of the Italian Cup, but they've also reached the Europa Cup final. Their notable improvement puts them in a good position to potentially beat Juventus.

Known for their strong start, Atalanta has taken advantage of this approach, scoring in 6 out of their last 7 first-half matches. So, it's very possible for Atalanta to score in the first half of the game.

On the other hand, Juventus has been struggling lately, winning only one of their last 10 Serie A matches under Allegri's leadership. Their streak of 5 draws, including one against the already relegated Salernitana,finding an equalizer against them in the dying minutes of the game shows their current difficulties. Also, Juventus' problems in attack are clear, as they've scored fewer than 1.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 matches. Given Atalanta's impressive form, it's reasonable to think about betting on Juventus to score less than 1.5 goals.

Editorial Prediction
In the past month, Atalanta's only defeat came against Liverpool in the Europa League semi-finals, yet they still managed to advance to the final. Judging by their recent performances, Atalanta appears to be in better form compared to Juventus, especially considering Juventus' failure to win in 6 of their last 7 meetings with Atalanta. Therefore, betting on Atalanta to not lose seems like the best option.
