Milan take on the visitors Atalanta in the round 24 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, February 26th at Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro – Milan).
It seems that Milan gradually began to get out of its crisis. The team beat London's Tottenham in the Champions League, and took two victories in a row in Serie A - over Torino and Monza. The team climbed to fourth place in the table and returned to the fight for silver medals. In the last rounds of the championship, the Milanese could not upset only Inter. I think that in this match you can expect at least one precise shot from Stefano Pioli's men. But the hosts are unlikely to keep their gates out of touch.

Atalanta, both in terms of the football as a whole and, first of all, in terms of attacking, surpasses both Monza and Torino, who in previous rounds could not upset the current champion. Gasperini's wards are only three points behind Milan in the table and may well impose both a fight in this match and compete for medals and a place in the Champions League zone. In the last four rounds of the league, Atalanta did not upset their rivals only once. After that failure in the game with Sassuolo, the team first beat Lazio 2-0, and then stumbled again, losing to Lecce 1-2. But in attack, Gasperini's wards are good, they score even more than Milan.
It is difficult to predict the outcome in this match. Both teams can surprise both in a good way and in a bad way. I guess I'll just wait for the goal exchange, which will happen with a high probability. Milan are the favorite on paper, we have to expect their goal. Atalanta are scoring even more goals in the league this season. Both teams concede more than a goal per game on average, both teams don't look perfect defensively. Milan scored in all 11 Serie A home matches, but at the same time allowed opponents to score in eight of them. As for Atalanta, they left the field without an accurate shot only twice in 23 rounds of the current season. In the reverse fixture the rivals drew in a head-to-head match, but the goals were exchanged (1-1). I think that this time in the Milan-Atalanta match, the bet on "both teams to score" will play.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
