AC Milan take on the visitors Atalanta in the round 26 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, February 25th at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) (Milan).
AC Milan have a chance to aim for second place. The Red and Blacks are playing well again, but not everywhere – this club under Stefano Pioli has an interesting trait. However, they have managed to achieve remarkable results by focusing on something. The failure in the Champions League in the fall of the previous year was more than compensated for by winning the Scudetto. Then they significantly dropped in Serie A, to 4th place (technically 5th – affected by the penalty imposed on Juventus), but last spring saw a semi-final in the Champions League. The management demanded the coach to reach the playoffs this time as well. However, the competition was too tough, and luck was not on their side: PSG secured second place with an exchange of victories and equal points. The team was also knocked out of the cup, losing at home to Atalanta. But they improved in Serie A. They were third for a long time, but a series of wins combined with a slow start by Old Lady in February narrowed the gap between the clubs. However, they unexpectedly lost 2-4 to Monza. Additionally, in the Europa League, after winning 3-0 at home against Rennes, they lost in France, but even this 2-3 was enough to progress.

Atalanta have been playing under Gasperini's leadership for a long time. And it was under him that they achieved maximum results: reaching the cup final, finishing in the top four of Serie A, and participating in the Champions League playoffs. But in the 2021/2022 season, La Dea experienced a setback when they finished outside the European spots. Even last spring, they didn't manage to reclaim their positions. However, even that allowed them to qualify for the Europa League, where the Italians performed well, winning their group. Thus, they will start the playoffs from the round of 16 in March. They also managed to advance to the semi-finals of the cup, knocking out Milan, where they will face Fiorentina in spring. In Serie A, they had varied results, but after Christmas, they noticeably improved, rising into the top four. They even managed to thrash Sassuolo 3-0.
Rossoneri had 4 wins with a draw. But in December, Bergamasques won 3-2 away in Serie A and added a 2-1 victory in the cup at San Siro. Rossoneri, playing at home, are considered favorites, but rather nominal ones. The visitors from Bergamo are also strong, so in this match between neighbors, we recommend betting on over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
