Lecce vs Atalanta Prediction: will the guests manage to win?

Prediction for the Serie A match which will take place on August 19. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Lecce

The Giallarossi replaced Roberto D'Aversa with Luca Gotti as head coach. The team had a great run and very confidently kept their place in Serie A. Of course, Gotti is still at the helm of the team, so at the start of the new season we expect quality defence and results from Lecce.

In the opening game of the season the Yellow-Red on their home field beat Mantova in the Italian Cup - 2:1.

Atalanta

Bergamaski as the winner of the Europa League took part in the draw of the UEFA Super Cup. It was not possible to win. Well, who in recent years manages to beat Real Madrid. 0:2 - Atalanta held on throughout the first half, but still conceded two unanswered goals in the second half.

Matteo Retegui - the main summer acquisition of Bergamaschi, who at first should replace the injured Gianluca Scamacca - did not appear in Atalanta's starting line-up for the match with Real Madrid. Also, Nicolo Zagnolo did not play - the ex-Roma striker is still injured.

Expert Betting Tips

Lecce, especially on their field, is a very tough opponent. Atalanta now, as the match with Real showed, is not in the best shape. In addition, Gian Piero Gasperini traditionally brings the team to peak form closer to the middle of the season. In the upcoming game, accordingly, Atalanta may well lose points.

Also, let's take TU on corners in the 1st half. In the last Serie A season, no more than four corner kicks were taken in 13 of Lecce's 19 home games and in 15 of Atalanta's 19 away games.
