Genoa vs Atalanta: Serie A Prediction (18.05.2025)

The Serie A Round 37 match between Genoa and Atalanta will take place on May 18, 2025 at 1:45 WIB. According to bookmakers, the visitors are the clear favorites. Let’s assess the current form of both teams and provide a prediction for the upcoming clash.

Genoa

Genoa currently sit in 13th place in the standings and are unlikely to significantly rise or fall in the remaining matches. Overall, the team has performed at its expected mid-table level. However, the end of the season has been disappointing. The Grifoni are on a five-match winless streak, showing signs of fatigue and lack of motivation. It’s worth noting that this slump has come against strong opponents such as Napoli, Milan, and Lazio — teams clearly superior in quality.

Atalanta

In contrast, Atalanta are in high spirits ahead of this fixture. The Bergamo-based side have already secured Champions League qualification for next season and are guaranteed third place in the league. They can no longer climb higher and now only observe the title race between Inter and Napoli. Gian Piero Gasperini’s men are in excellent form, going unbeaten in their last five matches (4 wins, 1 draw). With 73 goals scored, only Inter (75) have a better attacking record. Interestingly, Atalanta are also the best away team in the league: from 16 away games, they’ve earned 39 points and hold a goal difference of 39:11.

Head-to-Head Stats

Atalanta dominate the recent head-to-head record with 3 wins and 2 draws in the last 5 meetings. Their earlier meeting this season ended in a 5–1 win for Atalanta.

Prediction

We back Atalanta to win this match, as the difference in quality is quite evident. The odds for an Atalanta win are around 1.70. However, since both teams lack serious motivation in the standings, this may lead to a more open match.

🔥 Recommended bet: is Atalanta Over 1.5 Team Goals at odds of 1.81.
