Juventus vs Atalanta prediction: The hosts to keep on rolling.
Key Stats
- Juventus have won their last five Serie A matches.
- Atalanta have won just one of their last five matches in all competitions.
- Atalanta have failed to score in two of their last three Serie A matches.
Correct score prediction: Juventus 2-0 Atalanta
Confidence can be a leveller in footballer and that is easily the case here with Juventus playing their best football of the season and Atalanta arguably playing their worst. Juve's impressive winning streak is too hard to ignore and they should get the job done against a troubled Atalanta side.

- HOME: 6/4 (2.50) – 40%
- DRAW: 9/4 (3.25) – 30.8%
- AWAY: 9/5 (2.80) – 35.7%

Juventus preview: Could they surge to the title?
Juventus' first half of the season was dominated by their draw-heavy unbeaten run but since losing to Napoli at the end of January, they have found a new lease of life which has benefited them greatly. Yes, their Champions League exit was disappointing but they can now put all their efforts into pulling off an unlikely Scudetto triumph.
Predicted lineup: Di Gregorio (GK), Weah, Kalulu, Kelly, Cambiaso, Locatelli, Thuram, Locatelli, Gonzalez, McKennie, Yildiz, Kolo Muani

Player to watch: Randal Kolo Muani
Randal Kolo Muani got off to a brilliant start to his Juventus career but he has been on a bit of a dry spell in recent weeks and is now six games without a goal after scoring five in his first three appearances for the club. What better way to get among the goal than on Sunday to cement Juventus' place in the Serie A title race?
