Atalanta take on the visitors Torino in the round 38 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, May 26th at Gewiss Stadium (Bergamo).
Atalanta are heading into their match against Torino in excellent spirits and superb form, riding a five-game winning streak in the league. In their last ten matches across all competitions, the Bergamo team has secured eight victories. A few days ago, Gasperini's squad fully redeemed themselves for their loss in the Italian Cup final to Juventus by thrashing Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 in the decisive battle for the Europa League trophy. This victory secured their place in next season's Champions League as winners of Europe's second-most prestigious club tournament. It might seem that Atalanta no longer have any motivation for the remaining Serie A matches. Undoubtedly, this could affect the outcome of the match against the Bulls. However, it's unlikely that the Goddess's excellent attack will remain goalless. The team has plenty of scoring options, even among the substitute players.

Torino have been a solid mid-table team in the Italian championship for several years in a row. Currently, the team is in ninth place in the standings, one point ahead of Napoli. Not too long ago, the Turin side went through a four-match streak in the league without scoring any goals. However, it seems the temporary slump in the Bulls' attack has passed. Ivan Jurić's team first triumphed over Verona (2-1) and then over AC Milan (3-1). Of course, without the circumstances surrounding Atalanta, it would be difficult for Torino's players to contend for a positive result in the upcoming round. But considering the current situation, bookmakers even rate the visitors as slight favorites. I don't know if the Bulls will manage to win, but they should at least breach the opponent's defense once.
It seems that bookmakers expect Atalanta's players to come onto the field against Torino still celebrating their Europa League final victory, or that Gasperini will field a second-string team. I have no other explanation for such odds on the match. Well, maybe the bookmakers are right, as besides the international trophy, the Bergamo team already has a Champions League spot secured for next season. This means they have no motivation to win the remaining Serie A matches. Likewise, there is no pressure on Torino regarding the result of the upcoming match. I don't want to predict the outcome of the match. However, both teams are capable of playing for fun and delighting the fans with vibrant attacking football. For Atalanta, this is the last home game of the season, and for Torino, it’s their last match of the season. Let there be a festival of goals! In conclusion, I note that in six of their last seven head-to-head encounters, these teams have both scored. I predict that we will see at least one accurate strike from each side again.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
