Atalanta used to be one of the best teams in Italy but lately they have not been on form this season.
They are placed eighth in the table at the moment, and with just seven fixtures remaining in the competition, they need a surplus of four points to climb level with the sixth 
Note that a sixth place finish is mandatory for european qualification.
As such, the team is under massive pressure to post some urgent points on the board. And it’s worrying for the fans how their out-of-form defense will cope with this scenario.
Mean while, verona are going through a rather poor stretch of performances at the moment. They have carved themselves a place in the middle table and are far from the relegation battle as well as the European race.
On top of that, they have been struggling on the road for quite a while, and most importantly, they have a poor h2h record against this foe over the years.
Atalanta lost 2-1 on the road the last match day, against Ssassuolo. But they were unbeaten in seven of their past ten overall fixtures, and they had also won three of their former five appearances at home.
