Match Insights: Hellas Verona

After the 2-1 in Bergamo last April (goal by Ceccherini and own goal by Koopmeiners), Hellas Verona could win two games in a row against Atalanta for the first time since 2014. Hellas Verona drew their last league match against Bologna, across the whole of the last Serie A season the Scaligeri only once recorded two consecutive draws (September 2021 against Salernitana and Genoa). Hellas Verona have lost their last three Serie A home games and have not lost four in a row since March-April 2021 when one of the defeats was against Atalanta.

Player to Watch: Thomas Henry

Thomas Henry could become the first player to score in his first three Serie A games for Hellas Verona in the three-point win era (since 1994/95). He has scored in four matches in a row (including last season), the only French player to have scored in more consecutive games in Serie A in the era of three points per win was David Trezeguet (seven in 2001 and nine in 2005).

Match Insights: Atalanta

In Serie A so far this season, Atalanta won against Sampdoria and drew against Milan: across the previous 10 Serie A seasons, only in 2020/21 were they unbeaten in their first three matches of the campaign. Atalanta won their first away match this season and only four times in their Serie A history have they achieved two wins in their first two away games: in 2000/01 and in all three of their most recent seasons. Atalanta are both the team that has conceded the most fouls (36) in these first two Serie A matches, and the one that has received the most yellow cards (10).
