Juventus host Atalanta on Sunday in one of the standout fixtures of Serie A Round 5. Juventus have taken seven points from their opening four league matches, while Atalanta have six, meaning there is little separating the sides in the early standings. However, neither side has enjoyed a successful run in recent matchdays, with neither team recording a win in their last four Serie A fixtures.

The recent history of this fixture is particularly interesting. Atalanta have remained unbeaten in their last eight Serie A away matches against Juventus, recording two wins and six draws. Juventus' most recent home victory over La Dea in the league came in March 2018.
However, Juventus won the most recent league meeting between the teams, securing a 1-0 victory in Bergamo in April 2026. They will therefore attempt to record consecutive Serie A victories over Atalanta for the first time since a run of 13 straight wins between 2009 and 2016.
Juventus team overview
Juventus began the season with two wins and a draw before suffering a 3-2 defeat away to Sassuolo last weekend.
The defeat at Sassuolo exposed some defensive weaknesses, with Juventus conceding three goals after previously keeping clean sheets against Parma and Frosinone. Their home record could nevertheless provide encouragement, as they have collected four points from their first two league matches at the Allianz Stadium.
Luciano Spalletti has several injury concerns. Kenan Yildiz, Khéphren Thuram, Manuel Locatelli, Juan Cabal, Jérémie Boga and Jeff Ekhator are among those unavailable, while Andrea Cambiaso and Weston McKennie have returned to first-team training and could provide additional options.

Atalanta team overview
Atalanta have also won twice and lost twice in their opening four league games. Their campaign started with victories over Sassuolo and Bologna, but defeats against Roma and Cagliari have halted their momentum.
Their latest two defeats have therefore come by narrow one-goal margins, suggesting that the margins have been fine despite the poor results.
Maurizio Sarri's squad is currently without Isak Hien and Kamaldeen Sulemana, both recovering from injuries. Neither player is expected to return until October.

Prediction
This looks likely to be a closely contested encounter. Juventus have home advantage and a slightly better early-season record, but Atalanta's outstanding recent record at the Allianz Stadium should not be overlooked.
Prediction: Atalanta to Win or Draw (Double chance X2).
Three reasons we expect Double chance X2
- Atalanta are unbeaten in eight consecutive Serie A away meetings with Juventus.
- Juventus have also failed to win their last two league matches.
- The Bianconeri played NEC in midweek in the UEFA Europa League and could therefore face some fatigue issues.
