Atalanta vs Sassuolo 21.09.2021

Duván Zapata’s late strike for Atalanta at the weekend was enough as they denied newly-promoted side Salernitana their first point of the season with 1-0 away win.

Sassuolo’s bright start to the season following their opening day win at Verona all looks like a distant memory as they have failed to win the three subsequent matches, including back to back losses in their last two games

Previous encounters between these two teams have been thrillers and we expect more of the same here. With Atalanta trying to get back into the top four and Sassuolo trying to shake off a poor run of form, this game is primed for goals

Main tip: Over 2.5 Goals (go to tip details)
