The main fixture among all the Coppa Italia quarter-finals is the match between Atalanta and Juventus in Bergamo. The teams have already met in Turin this season but could not find a winner (1:1), so it is no surprise that odds above 2.50 are being offered on both sides to win.
Atalanta
Atalanta have been in very poor form recently: just one win in their last five matches, and that came against the underdogs Parma Calcio 1913. In addition, there are serious questions about their physical condition, as at the weekend the hosts had to expend a lot of energy to take a point against Como 1907 (0:0). It is notable that in that match they were reduced to ten men as early as the 8th minute and from then on only defended.
Juventus
Juventus are in excellent form at the moment: five wins and one draw in their last seven matches. First of all, we should highlight their outstanding defence, which over this run has conceded only twice (one of those goals was an own goal). In addition, the attack is improving with every match: Jonathan David has recorded 7 goal contributions (4 goals and 3 assists) in these 7 games, while Weston McKennie has added three more goals.
Atalanta vs Juventus Prediction
Yes, they were evenly matched at the start of the season, but since then Juventus have made clear progress and now look much stronger than Atalanta. We expect the visitors to secure a place in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia without too much difficulty.
