19/09 Football Predictions: Arsenal travels to Atalanta to begin UEFA Champions League journey

Football Predictions

Arsenal will be in Bergamo on Thursday as they begin their UEFA Champions League journey against Serie A side Atalanta.

Odds by MozzartBet

Atalanta are in the Champions League after winning the UEFA Europa League title last season but have been very inconsistent since the season started. They won two and lost two league games this season but being at home might give them the needed energy to tackle the Mikel Arteta side who have started the season brilliantly.

Visitors Arsenal want to sweep everything in their way but they will have to navigate a group that has some of the best teams in the competition. They come into the game buoyed by their win in the North London derby and the players they have should do a good job in Italy.

H2H / Stats 

This is the first time these teams will be meeting in a competitive match

Team News 

Atalanta will be missing three of their defenders as Giorgio Scalavini, Ben Godfrey, and Rafael Toloi, are ruled out. Gianluca Scamacca is a long-term absentee after suffering an ACL injury that should keep him out until April 2025.

Arsenal should welcome Declan Rice back into the starting team after missing their last league game due to suspension. However, Mikel Merino, Martin Odegaard, Riccardo Calafiori, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Kieran Tierney are all ruled out but there are reports that the Premier League side might welcome back right Takehiro Tomiyasu.

Probable Line-Up 

Atalanta XI: Carnesecchi (GK), Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac, Bellanova, Ederson, de Roon, Ruggeri, De Ketelaere, Retegui, Lookman

Arsenal XI: Raya (GK), White, Gabriel, Saliba, Timber, Rice, Partey, Trosard, Saka, Martinelli, Haverts

Verdict

Atalanta might give Arsenal a few problems but no one is just sure how they’ll turn up against a Mikel Arteta side who have been firing from all cylinders.

BTTS❌

Reason: As hosts, Atalanta might nick a goal considering the options they have on attack. Arsenal has scored in all their games this season and this wont be different.
