Atalanta return from the international break with a home fixture against Venezia in Bergamo. Punters looking at the coupon will find several promotions available for this Monday night encounter. Bookmakers price a home victory at 4/7 with BetUS.

Atalanta look for a response

La Dea suffered a difficult run of form prior to the international break. They enter this fixture on the back of three consecutive Serie A defeats. Maurizio Sarri needs his squad to find some attacking fluency after scoring only one goal in eight of their previous nine matches across all competitions.

Team news for the hosts shows Kamaldeen Sluemana remains sidelined with a knee injury. Isak Hein might return to the squad to boost their defensive options. Gianluca Scamacca scored while away with Italy and should lead the attack.

Venezia struggle at the bottom

Venezia sit rock bottom of the table after losing all of their opening five league matches. The visitors have shipped thirteen goals while scoring only four times so far. Their defensive problems stretch back into the previous campaign with at least two goals conceded in nine straight appearances.

The travelling squad could welcome back Tomislav Basic, Bartol Franjic and Armel Bella from injuries. Juan Jesus is expected to start in defence following his summer move from Napoli. John Yeboah should keep his place in the starting lineup after representing Ecuador.

Head to head history

When these two teams met in Bergamo back in March 2025, they played out a scoreless draw. Atalanta have lost their last three league matches by an aggregate score of 6 to 2. Venezia are still searching for their first top flight point of the season.

What it means for a bet

Backing Atalanta at 4/7 makes them short favourites, but their recent poor form could tempt some punters into looking at alternative markets.
