Monday 27th November 2017 – Kickoff: 2045hrs
Football – Italy – Serie A Betting Tips
Onto the Italian top flight next and Monday night wraps up this weekend’s action in Serie A with hosts Atalanta taking on rock bottom club, Benevento, at their Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia in Bergamo, no doubt keen to end their recent slump with an easy three points this evening.
Atalanta have suffered defeats to Udinese and Inter Milan in recent weeks, both away from home, while earning just a point at home against SPAL as they were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw, but their recent exploits in the Europa League, especially their 5-1 win away at Premier League club, Everton during the week, should give them plenty of confidence ahead of Monday night.
But despite their recent slum in Serie A, their form on home turf remains solid as they’ve put together a six match unbeaten run amidst an overall record of 4-2-1 14/6 with midfielder Cristante (4 goals) looking the most likely to notch tonight.
Visitors Benevento have had to endure a wretched campaign in their first ever season in the Italian top flight as they sit bottom of Serie A without a single point to their name, and we’re 13 matches into the season.
I can’t remember there ever being such a poor side in the Italian top flight as Benevento this season as they’ve lost all 13 league matches, and this run looks set to continue when they make their way to Bergamo for monday night’s clash against Atalanta.
Benevento’s away record stands at a particularly poor 0-0-6 3/15 along with having the worst goal difference in the division at -27, and it’s hard to see how they’re going to escape the drop down to Serie B, even at this relatively early stage of the season, such is their poor form and no doubt, confidence.
Pick: Atalanta HT/FT @ 1.80 Betfair
