Torino hosts Atalanta in round 2 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Saturday, September 26th at Stadio Olimpico di Torino (Turin)
Torino came as a hard letdown if we look at its results after a pandemic pause. The team was losing to everyone and everything. At first, there were thoughts about European cups, but everything ended with a very low 16th place. As a result, there was a change of coach in the team, and Marco Giampaolo headed the Bulls, but he started with a defeat in the first match of the new season. Torino lost to Fiorentina with a 0-1 score. The attack represented by Belotti and Zaza looked weak, and the results of the previous season seem to have transferred to the current one. Baselli, Rodriguez, and Singo are injured.

Atalanta has not started the season officially, but Gasperini's men have never complained about problems with the physical conditioning. Miranchuk is injured so far, so he is postponing his debut in Italy. The team played in the Champions League, so it has not started in the new Serie A yet. Nevertheless, looking at the friendly match with Pro Sesto (4-1) last weekend, we can say that the Black-and-Blues are ready for the new season, and the teamwork should not be lost. In addition to Miranchuk, Gollini will not play for Atalanta, but Ilicic will return after depression and will strengthen the attack.
In the last championship, the teams crossed their paths twice and exchanged away victories. Atalanta destroyed Torino in Turin (0-7), but the Black-and-Blues unexpectedly lost at home (2-3). Now many factors speak in favor of the visitors. Torino's defense is very weak, and the visitors’ game with high pressure is very uncomfortable for the hosts. I think that Ilicic, Gomez, Malinovsky, Pasalic, and the company will beat Torino due to high individual skills, and the Bulls will continue their unsuccessful streak.
Prediction for the match: Atalanta to win
