They managed to beat Atalanta 3-2 away in September. Now they will play at home and with this morale, they have a chance to win. Of course, Atalanta is in great form right now and is a very difficult team to beat, but Como knows how to surprise us in some matches. More than anything, I think they will make us watch an enjoyable match. Both Atalanta and Como have very successful matches in Italy. I think it will be an enjoyable match to watch.
It's when Atalanta did not begin this season too good, but now they are solid in top four and are still in Scudetto competition with Napoli and Inter Milan. Bad matches recently don't make Atalanta weaker than Como. In quality and experience, they are better and more experienced than Como, and Atalanta are one of most stable clubs in Serie A in the last decade.
Atalanta can beat Como in this match, to get rid of fear that they won't be able to race for Scudetto in this season or will fall out of top four very soon.
Atalanta dropped a lot of points in the last five games and this is the best chance for them to get back on track when they face Como so they can get the full three points in the game. Como surprisingly gave a fierce slow for the top teams because even though they failed to get a win, they did not let their opponents win the game easily. Atalanta must be wary of a draw because it will not be beneficial for them and I am sure Como will put more pressure on the game.
Atalanta had a very long unbeaten streak with 15 matches, but they did not win in 3 consecutive matches before they got a first defeat after 15 matches last week. Is it a bottom of their bad form recently or there will be some more bad matches before Atalanta waking up and returning to their good performances?
Como made surprising climb in Serie A from relegation zone to mid of the league table, and they are moving upwards with very good momentum. Atalanta and Como have different forms recently and this match can be a turning point for them, for example Atalanta returning to winning track and Como falling down with defeats again.
