Atalanta 11/8 to beat Genoa in Tuesday’s Serie A game

Competition: Serie A

Market: Atalanta to beat Genoa

Odds: 11/8 @ Bet365

Italy’s top league continues as the competition remains incredibly tight both at the top and the bottom of the league. Things are particularly tight in mid-table, with each and every team desperate to put space between themselves and the relegation zone. With this in mind, Genoa host Atalanta on Tuesday.

Genoa have been struggling massively this season and they are in need of points. In their last five games they have been able to pick up seven points, but this has only seen them put two points between themselves and SPAL in 18th. 13 goals scored shows they are timid in front of goal, while they have conceded 20 times, displaying that they must be better at the back. If they are to stave off relegation this season, then they must find a way to improve at both ends of the pitch.

Atalanta have been in fairly good form this season, but they are some way short of the sides in the Champions League places. One win, two draws and two defeats in their last five have seen the side to 12th in the league with 20 points, nine clear of SPAL in 18th. They have scored 21 goals this season, but they have had to pick the ball out of the back of their own net 19 times, which is not good enough. Despite all of this, we are backing Atalanta with odds of 11/8 form Bet365.
