Match Analysis
Atalanta travel to Sassuolo as clear favourites, with superior defensive numbers and a strong away record. Sassuolo are in good form but have defensive vulnerabilities, especially at home (1.46 goals conceded per home game). Atalanta's recent form is strong, and they have a solid record in this matchup. Expect Atalanta to control the game, but Sassuolo's attack could threaten, especially in transition.
