SPAL take on the visitors Atalanta at the Stadio Paolo Mazza in the 4th tour of the Serie A TIM. The match will be played in Ferrara on Monday, September 17th.
In their last tour fixture against Torino Gli Spallini were not able to recoup after conceding a goal. SPAL lost with a 0-1 score in the end. This time it will be very hard for the team of Leonardo Semplici to score once again. Thereby it will be very hard for them to get any points out of the match against Atalanta. It`s worth noting that every official fixture SPAL have had this season has ended with a 1-0 score but not all of them have been the victories for I Biancazzurri. In the first tour of the 2018/2019 Serie A TIM season SPAL beat Bologna with a 1-0 score on the away side. In the second tour they beat Parma with a 1-0 score in front of their home crowd. In the third tour Gli Estensi lost to Torino with a 0-1 score on the away field. Overall, the playing style of SPAL has been pretty solid lately but they have not faced such strong teams as Atalanta yet. The team of Leonardo Semplici has been having a seven match home undefeated streak recently but most of those fixtures have been friendly ones and against weak opponents. This summer SPAL have had six friendly matches, they have won four of them (over Ankaran with a 6-1 score, over Campodarsego with a 2-1 score, over Gorica with a 2-1 score, over Eintracht Frankfurt with the same 2-1 score), have drawn one (against Perugia with a 0-0 score) and have lost also one (to Lazio with a 0-3 score).

Even though they tried hard Atalanta got knocked out from the UEFA Europa League in the end. However, La Dea had multiple goal attempts in their Eurocups fixtures and were looking better than their opponents overall. Now they will put all their effort into the Serie A TIM. Quite frankly, their chance of succeeding this season is really high. In their second tour fixture against Roma the team of Gian Piero Gasperini drew with a 3-3 score which was an incredible match. However, in the third tour the Orobici lost to Cagliari with a 0-1 score. Now they have to rehabilitate before their fans even though it will be hard for them to do it on the away side. In their last three matches Atalanta lost to Cagliari with a 0-1 score, to Copenhagen with a 0-1 score and drew against Roma with a 3-3 score.
Even though it will be hard for Atalanta to face the uncomfortable SPAL they have a great potential. Most importantly, La Dea had time to vindicate themselves after their failure in the UEFA Europa League. The team of Gian Piero Gasperini is better than the team of Leonardo Semplici in every aspect of the game so they should get the three points in the upcoming fixture.
Prediction for the match: Atalanta to win.
