Over 2.5 Goals
Sassuolo delivered a sensational result last weekend when they put five goals past current champions AC Milan at San Siro and with their confidence levels topped up, I Neroverdi should have the mettle to go toe-to-toe with Atalanta on Saturday. Excitement could be in the works at the MAPEI Stadium – Città del Tricolore then, and incredibly, 11 of the last 12 meetings between the clubs have featured over 2.5 goals. With those factors aligned, our first prediction recommends a stake in the same direction.
Both Teams to Score
Sassuolo and Atalanta will both believe they have what it takes to secure maximum points on Saturday and as a consequence, an open game should ensure when both sides pursue victory. This fixture has a history of providing entertainment, in fact, BTTS has landed in 12 of the last 13 tussles between the teams in league and cup. We’ve given this one the big build up and we don’t expect either defence to finish the contest with a clean sheet.

Sassuolo vs Atalanta Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Saturday’s Serie A clash between Sassuolo and Atalanta below.
Sassuolo
Attacker Andrea Pinamonti is rated as doubtful ahead of the weekend, though Sassuolo have few injury concerns elsewhere. Head Coach Alessio Dionisi would have been thrilled about his team's performance in Sassuolo's 5-2 win at AC Milan on Sunday, so expect a similar XI to take to the field this weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Sassuolo: Consigli – Rogerio, Erlic, Ruan, Marchizza – Frattesi, Obiang, Berardi, Traore, Lauriente – Defrel
Atalanta
Defender Jose Luis Palomino is out of action for Atalanta as is midfielder Davide Zappacosta. La Dea slipped to a narrow 1-0 defeat when they travelled to take on Inter Milan on Tuesday, though they are still handily placed to launch an assault for second place in Serie A. Ademola Lookman was named on the bench at Inter, though he should start this weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Atalanta: Musso – Toloi, Djimsiti, Scalvini – Hateboer, de Roon, Koopmeiners, Maehle – Boga, Lookman, Zapata
Player to Watch – Domenico Berardi
Winger Domenico Berardi was in electrifying form on Tuesday evening when he helped Sassuolo to net five times at AC Milan in an incredible 5-2 win over the champions at San Siro. The 28-year-old scored one and made another three of Sassuolo’s goals from the right flank and Berardi should carry tons of momentum in Saturday’s fixture.
