Udinese-Atalanta is a Serie A Week 9 match played on Sunday at 15:00: odds, predictions, TV and streaming
UDINESE – ATALANTA | Sunday 3 pm
On the ninth day of Serie A, Udinese-Atalanta is a direct clash for first place in the standings. A surprise especially for Udinese, as Atalanta without European cups was a candidate on the eve of the match for a leading role, although not for even the top positions. What has impressed most in this start to the season, however, has been Udinese, who in some ways resemble… Atalanta.
Coach Sottil has given a precise game identity and can count on the physical power of his players, who run like hell from start to finish. A mix of technique and muscles that makes the Friulian team a candidate for a high-level championship: it does not seem a casual position, that of the bianconeri.
Atalanta has greater defensive solidity than in the past, Demiral is confirming himself at high levels and Scalvini and Okoli are two youngsters with an assured future. In certain matches there was also that bit of luck, which never hurts, see at the Olimpico against Roma.
Udinese-Atalanta: latest line-up news
Gasperini
Atalanta continue to achieve positive results, but the many absences, some very heavy, should not be forgotten. Djimsiti, Musso, Palomino, Toloi, Zapata and Zappacosta will be missing. On the other side instead Sottil, apart from Masina, can count on the starters who have impressed in this initial phase of the Serie A championship.
The prediction
Atalanta could pay for their numerous absences this time round against a team that will be able to hold their own in terms of intensity of play: Udinese look capable of avoiding defeat in a game of at least one goal per team.
