🇮🇹 Atalanta vs Bologna 🇮🇹 — Prediction
Serie A · Matchday 2 · Mon, 31 Aug 2026, 20:45 CEST · New Balance Arena, Bergamo
Our AI call, published before kickoff
2–1
Tipped scorers: Gianluca Scamacca (Atalanta) · Lazar Samardzic (Atalanta) · Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna)
Why we called it
Sarri has switched Atalanta from their traditional back three to a 4-3-3, and the new shape delivered a 2-1 win over Sassuolo with Scamacca preferred to Krstovic and Samardzic relaunched as an interior. Tedesco's Bologna lost 1-0 at home to Lazio on his league debut, keeping the 4-3-3 with Orsolini and Rowe wide but struggling to finish. Bergamo remains a hard place to visit and Atalanta's sharper front line should decide a game Bologna are good enough to make competitive.
