Atalanta v Lecce -Sunday - 14.00
ATALANTA V LECCE (SUNDAY)
Both teams to score: Yes at 1.89 with Marathonbet – 2 units
Atalanta are coming off another loss mid-week after losing 2-1 to Shakhtar Donetsk
Atalanta have now conceded at least one goal in all but one of their competitive matches this season. Their one clean sheet came against Roma but we should note Roma missed countless good chances in that game (2.22 xG)
Lecce have been decent in the chance creation department with an average of 1.31xG generated per match and an average of 1 goal scored per game. Considering Atalanta’s mid-week distraction and their general weak defence I see the visitors having plenty of chances in this game
Away from these numbers are actually higher with 1.67 goals per game and 1.39xG
Only 4 teams in Serie A have kept few clean sheets than Atalanta in their last 20 matches
Verdict: Lecce will be more than aware of Atalanta’s goalscoring threat, don’t expect them to just sit back and absorb pressure.
