Serie A
Recent meetings strongly favour Atalanta. The Bergamo side have won four of the last five encounters, with the other ending in a goalless draw. Atalanta won 2-0 in Venice in October 2024 before the teams drew 0-0 at the New Balance Arena in March 2025.
Atalanta team overview
Atalanta began the campaign with wins over Sassuolo and Bologna but have subsequently lost to Roma, Cagliari and Juventus. Their latest setback was a 2-0 defeat away to Juventus, but they are still only a couple of wins away from breaking into the top four.
Despite these defeats in the final few rounds before the international break, Atalanta remain relatively solid defensively, conceding only slightly more than one goal per game on average. Their attacking numbers, however, are much less encouraging, as they average just 0.81 xG per match, the second-lowest figure in Serie A.
Atalanta will be without Isak Hien, Odilon Kossounou, Kamaldeen Sulemana and Giacomo Raspadori, while Thomas Pompei is also unavailable. The latest team news suggests there are no suspensions, with Sarri expected to continue with a 4-3-3 formation.

Venezia team overview
Venezia have endured a difficult return to Serie A, losing all five of their matches. They have scored only four goals while conceding 13 - Serie A’s worst defensive record - including defeats against Lecce, Milan, Frosinone, Fiorentina and Lazio. Their most recent league outing ended in a 2-0 home defeat to Lazio.
However, their underlying attacking numbers are better than their points total suggests. Venezia have generated 1.49 xG per game and 7.43 xG in total, but have scored only four goals.
The visitors also have several absentees. Sverko, Franjic, Busio, Adorante, Dagasso, Basic and Schingtienne are among those unavailable or doubtful, according to the latest reports.

Prediction
Despite Atalanta's poor recent form and uninspiring underlying attacking numbers, this looks like a favourable fixture for Sarri's team. Venezia's poor record against Atalanta, make a home victory the most likely outcome, but a goal-fest should not be expected.
Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals.
Three reasons we expect Under 2.5 Goals
- The last two Serie A meetings between Atalanta and Venezia have produced under 2.5 goals.
- Atalanta's home matches in Serie A this season have also rarely produced a high goal output: one ended with under 2.5 goals, while the other two finished 2-1, only narrowly going over the 2.5-goal line.
- Meanwhile, three of Venezia's five Serie A matches this season have also produced under 2.5 goals.
