Preview
Atalanta's injury list keeps growing. Thomas Kristensen and Gianluca Gaetano were both hurt in Thursday's 2-2 draw at Fiorentina and will be out until after the international break. Sky lists ten unavailable players in all, among them Scamacca, Kessié, Raspadori, Bellanova and centre-backs Hien, Kossounou and Kolasinac. Sarri's expected back line pairs Giorgio Scalvini, just back from injury, with academy defender Relja Obric. His side still score: Atalanta have conceded and scored freely in recent weeks, including a 4-4 draw with Frosinone. Parma come in 19th on five points after a 0-0 draw with Udinese, in which Bernabé missed a penalty. Elphege is their only listed absentee. Four of the last five meetings, a friendly included, produced three goals or more, and Atalanta won 4-0 in Bergamo in January. The market makes Atalanta 63% favourites; with two more starters out we trim that to 60%, below our value threshold at 1.57. A makeshift defence pushes us the other way on goals: we rate over 2.5 at 60%.
Atalanta are short at the back, with two fit centre-backs, and their games have been open. We take over 2.5 goals at 1.73, rated at 60%.
