Atalanta played very poorly in the first round of the championship. Gianpiero Gasperini’s team made many mistakes at the start of the season, being stuck in the middle of the table. Now the situation has changed. The Bergamasks are already fifth in the table and only due to additional indicators they lag behind Juventus and Roma, so they are quite capable of competing for a ticket to the Champions League. In January Atalanta faced problems that were not inherent in them at all. The team created few chances and scored only one goal in the games with Genoa (0:0) and Udinese (1:1), losing points. However, in the last round the unsuccessful series was put to an end. In the away match against Milan Atalanta scored three times and kept their goal locked. Last week the Bergamaski made it to the semi-finals of the Italian Cup. In a difficult match with Lazio they managed to get a victory with a score of 3:2, finishing out the meeting in the minority after sending off Jose Palomino. Now, in the semifinals of the tournament, Atalanta will meet with Napoli.
Peacocks continue to be in the middle of the standings. The team has just returned to the Premier League this season and its main task is to gain a foothold here. In the last round Marcelo Bielsa’s wards successfully played on the road against Newcastle, knocking out the forty with a score of 2:1. For Leeds this victory was already the third in the last five rounds. During this period the team also achieved success in matches against Burnley (2:1) and West Bromwich (5:0) and lost to Tottenham (0:3) and Brighton (0:1). The Peacocks are one of the few teams that rarely draw in the current English Nationals. Over the past 20 rounds Marcelo Bielsa’s wards have signed the world championship only twice. Now Leeds are in 12th place in the standings. The team has 26 points on its balance sheet. It is already 13 points ahead of the relegation zone, but it doesn’t not pretend to be something serious. Defenders Robin Koch, Diego Liorente and Gaetano Berardi, as well as midfielder Adam Forshaw, will miss the game due to injury. More accurate match prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
