Atalanta take on the visitors Juventus in the postponed round 19 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Tuesday, January 14th at Gewiss Stadium (Bergamo).
Atalanta is maintaining a high level. The Bergamaschi have become one of the giants of Italian football. They lost their positions for a couple of years, but in 2023/2024 they managed to truly return to the top: they won the battle for 4th place against the peak Bologna. Yes, they lost in the cup final, to Juventus, but they more than compensated for this by winning the Europa League - Gasperini and his team won the international trophy. After the summer personnel changes, which were largely forced (Scamacca's injury and the sale of Koopmeners), there was no decline. There are still failures, such as the 0-2 loss in the Super Cup with Inter. But at the same time, the Italians looked quite confident in the Champions League and did not encounter problems in the cup. And in Serie A, the misfires at the start were compensated by further victories. In 2025, however, they started with only a draw against Lazio. And in the last round, they managed to score no goals against Udinese.

Juventus improved in terms of results last season. After a couple of unsuccessful draws, they returned to 3rd place in Serie A - only a couple from Milan scored more points. In addition, having beaten Atalanta, Allegri won the cup. But, having lifted the trophy, Massimiliano was fired with a scandal. In the summer, Thiago Motta was lured to the vacant post, and many newcomers were bought under the Italian Brazilian, easily getting rid of many previously important players. As a result, the team from Turin looks pretty good after returning to the Champions League and has confidently advanced in terms of defending the trophy in the cup. On the other hand, the trip to Jeddah resulted in a spineless defeat for Milan, which just changed its coach. And in Serie A, the Bianconeri are unbeaten, but have had a lot of draws, 11 already, which prevents them from rising into the top 4. In the derby with Torino, the sides scored a goal each - a split of points again.
The Old Lady have not lost in 6 head-to-head matches. True, there were 4 draws, but among a couple of victories - and success in the 2024 cup final. It is tempting to bet on another draw. But let's reformat it a little: the Old Lady will be able to avoid losing.
Prediction for the match: Juventus not to lose (X2).
