Where to Watch –

This match can be watched on One Football with the match kicking off on the 17th of May at 19:45.

Key Statistics:

Atalanta have remained unbeaten to Genoa in their last ten meetings having won 6 of these whilst also drawing the other 4. Marco Retegui is Serie A’s top scorer with the striker scoring 24 goals so far this campaign. Genoa haven’t won a match in their last 5. Genoa have scored just 3 goals in their last 5 whilst Atalanta have scored 10 goals in their last 5.

Team Previews:

Genoa:

Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1) – Siegrist, Sabelli, Otoa, Vasquez, Ahanor, Masini, Frendrup, Norton-Cufffy, Messias, Oliveira, Pinamonti.

In their 2nd season since promotion to Italy’s top division, Genoa has consolidated themselves in mid-table, firmly away from relegation but not challenging for Europe. They go into this fixture off the back of a 2-2 draw with league leaders Napoli and this remains the highest scoring fixture in their last 5 encounters.

There are many key players to look out for whilst watching the match from a Genoa perspective. One of these is Andrea Pinamonti – Genoa’s top scorer. The striker will be looking to end a goal drought that hasn’t seen him score since February and with a height of 6ft 1in , he could be a player to look out for from set pieces.

Mentioning set pieces, defender Johan Vasquez will also be a key player to look out for. With a goal against Napoli and with the 26 year old a consistent starter, his threat from set pieces can not be underestimated.

In terms of availability, Genoa look to have their strongest squad available for the fixture.

Atalanta:

Predicted Lineup (3-4-2-1) – Carnesecchi, de Roon, Hien, Kossounou, Zappacosta, Ederson, Pasalic, Bellanova, Lookman, De Keteleaere, Retegui.

Unbeaten in 5, Atalanta have been a force to be reckoned with in Serie A this season climbing to 3rd spot after a 4th place finish last season. The away side go into this fixture off the back of a 2-1 victory over Roma – who are fighting for their own European spot lower down the table.

Atalanta have many key players, but none come more key than Mateo Retegui who is Serie A’s top goal scorer with 24 goals. The striker will look to continue his excellent form with a goal or assist in this encounter.

However, the influence of Ademola Lookman can also be not overlooked. With 20 goal involvements and 15 of these coming through goals, Lookman will look to continue his recent goalscoring form which saw him score the winner against Roma.

In terms of availability, Atalanta go into the game with a fairly strong availability within their squad.

Head to Head Record –

In the reverse fixture, Atalanta dominated proceedings winning by 5 goals to 1 in an encounter that saw Atlanta go 5-0 up and saw Retegui saw a hattrick.
