Pisa – Atalanta. Forecast and announcement for the match of the Italian championship

On January 16, Pisa – Atalanta will play their meeting as part of the next Serie A round. The match is scheduled to start at 21:45 Kyiv time.

Pisa

Since Pisa is a newcomer to the elite Italian division, no one expected phenomenal results from the club, the predictions of skeptics have come true, the club is leading the way for survival, occupying the last step in the championship. The situation is not hopeless yet, because the lag behind the life-saving 17th place is only 4 points.

In the last round, Pisa was able to resist away from home against the experienced veteran Udinese, playing 2:2. It cannot be said that the team plays badly, but often something is missing. Keeping your registration in Serie A will be a great success, it is important to gain valuable experience, perhaps due to its lack, sometimes important points are lost.

The club has a lot of personnel losses, Albiol, Cudrado, Lusuardi, Stangs, Vural are injured, Caracciolo is disqualified, Akinsanmiro is in the national team, Denoon is in question.

Atalanta

Bergamaski have made an excellent run in the championship, they have 5 wins in six meetings, the team is trying to compensate for a bad start. In the last round, they managed to beat Torino at home in a difficult match – 2:0.

Atalanta have already moved up to seventh in Serie A, three points adrift of the European Cup zone, but sixth-placed Como have a game in hand. It is far from the desired first quartet, as many as 8 points. In other tournaments, things are going better than in the championship, in the Coppa Italia they will play in the quarter-finals against Juventus, and in the Champions League they are in fifth place in the tournament table, so they should get to the playoffs.

Injuries will not allow such players to play as: Bakker, Bellanova, Jimcity, Kolasinac is questionable, Kossunu was rested, and Lukman is still in the national team.

Personal meetings

In the battle of the first round, Atalanta unexpectedly lost points at home, playing 1:1, although they played better, but it was not possible to press the opponent then.

Forecast

The guests are quoted as favorites for this match, which is quite logical, Atalanta is in excellent form and will come for victory. Pisa needs points, so on its field it is necessary to hold on against any opponent. Bergamaski are higher in class and should take advantage of the opponent’s not always confident game. I believe that a bet on a clean win for the guests at 1.64 (according to the BC betking line) will come in here.
