After a brief wobble in Serie A in October and November, it looks like Atalanta are back in form after a five-game unbeaten run in the Italian top-flight.
La Dea will look to continue their recent decent form on Wednesday afternoon, as they host Parma at the Gewiss Stadium.
A 5-1 home win over Sassuolo last time out moved the Nerazzurri within two points of the Champions League spots in Serie A. The game saw Atalanta score at least two goals for the fourth game in their previous five matches in the Italian top-flight. The game was also the fourth straight Atalanta league match in which both teams had scored.
Gian Piero Gasperini’s team have been in superb form on home soil of late in Serie A, as they have won three straight league matches at the Gewiss Stadium, scoring at least three goals in each of the victories.
Parma are enjoying an inconsistent campaign in the Italian top-flight. However, the visitors recent form has taken a turn for the worse. The Gialloblu head into this clash in poor form in Serie A.
A 3-0 defeat at Torino last time out means that Fabio Liverani’s team is winless in six league matches, including suffering three straight defeats in the Italian top-flight. The run means that Parma are just a point above the relegation zone.
The visitors have struggled to score goals in recent league games, as they have failed to score in three of their previous four matches in Serie A.
Parma have not been great away from home in the Italian top-flight, winning just one of their previous seven outings on their travels. The visitor's defensive record on their travels has been poor, as they have conceded at least two goals in seven of their last eight matches.
Forebet predicts that Atalanta will record a victory in a high-scoring clash to push back up the Serie A table.
