Atalanta gets an easy opponent because they will face the team at the bottom of the standings. I think it is not difficult for Atalanta to secure 3 points because in this match they have stronger strength compared to their opponents. Moreover, seeing Venezia's defense which is so fragile is certainly an advantage for Atalanta to attack them aggressively. In addition, if you look at the performance of Atalanta's front line where Retegui is in his best form because in the previous match he recorded a hat-trick when defeating Genoa.
So this match must be utilized by Atalanta as best as possible, they must play better and not consider their opponents weak because the lower teams often make surprises when underestimated. Therefore, 3 points are quite important because they will make their position rise to a better ranking if they succeed in defeating Venezia. In another match, Napoli will face Empoli and maybe this match is quite tough because statistically Empoli has managed to dominate the victory 3 times in their 5 meetings with Napoli. So will Napoli succeed in stopping their bad trend when facing Empoli.
is in the bottom position with a fairly vulnerable defense, it looks like Atalanta has a great opportunity to control the game and carry three points home. Besides, the Atalanta frontline is in fine fettle. Their striking power can unequivocally be a grave menace to Venezia's less solid defense.
However, should Atalanta perceive this as an easy match and not put in their best performance, Venezia might just take advantage of run-of-play and go ahead to spring that unexpected surprise.
This should not be a nightmare match for Venezia. They will most likely play on the back foot with good discipline and look for spaces to exploit at the back. If they can withstand long enough and install some chances via counter-attacks, they can still make the game difficult for Atalanta. It is an important moment for both teams. For the hosts, this match is supposed not to be a nightmare. Atalanta has to fight to prevent a bad result that could worsen their position in the standings.
