Frosinone’s Uphill Battle Against High-Flying Atalanta

Stadio Benito Stirpe is all set to host a captivating encounter this Saturday, where Frosinone, fresh off their promotion, will clash with Atalanta BC in the second round of the 2023-24 Serie A season. The match promises excitement, especially given the contrasting fortunes both teams experienced in the opening week.

A Tough Start for Frosinone:

Despite their commendable performance in Serie B last season, Frosinone’s reintroduction to Serie A proved daunting. They began their campaign against the formidable defending champions, Napoli, and the journey doesn’t get any smoother with Atalanta up next. In their match against Napoli, the newly promoted side showed promise when Abdou Harroui netted an early penalty. However, Napoli quickly countered with Victor Osimhen’s two goals and an additional strike from Matteo Politano, leaving Frosinone to reflect on a 3-1 loss.

For Frosinone, the primary concern is their transition to the top flight. They only tasted defeat twice in Serie B last year, a tally they might match in just two games in Serie A if they don’t rally against Atalanta. With the looming threat of relegation, it’s essential for Eusebio Di Francesco’s side to secure points wherever possible.

Atalanta: The Formidable Bergamaschi:

Atalanta, often considered the dark horses of Serie A, have kicked off the season in style. Their summer transfers made headlines, especially with significant investments from the sale of Rasmus Hojlund to Manchester United. Players like El Bilal Toure, Gianluca Scamacca, and Charles De Ketelaere have joined the ranks, bolstering their forward line. Their victory against Sassuolo, with both De Ketelaere and Nadir Zortea playing pivotal roles, showcases their depth and quality.

Despite Duvan Zapata’s ongoing injury struggles, his importance to the team remains paramount. With players like Ademola Lookman retained and new additions settling in, another victory, especially against newcomers Frosinone, would be an ideal scenario for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side.

The Probable Line-ups:

Frosinone’s potential starting XI sees Turati in goal, a defensive line of Oyono, Monterisi, Romagnoli, Marchizza, a midfield trio of Gelli, Mazzitelli, Harroui, and an attacking line of Baez, Cuni, and Caso.

For Atalanta, Musso might stand between the posts, with a backline of Djimsiti, Scalvini, Kolasinac, midfield consisting of Zappacosta, De Roon, Koopmeiners, Pasalic, Ruggeri, and a forward duo of Lookman and Zapata.

The Predictions:

1. Match Outcome – Atalanta to Win with a -1 Handicap: Atalanta have a history of securing comprehensive victories. Their previous four Serie A wins were by a margin of two or more goals. Given Frosinone’s vulnerability, especially their 3-1 loss to Napoli, Atalanta seems poised to win convincingly.

2. Correct Score Prediction – Atalanta 3, Frosinone 0: Frosinone managed a single shot on target against Napoli, which indicates a potential struggle in breaching Atalanta’s defence. With Atalanta’s offensive prowess, a 4-0 win appears likely.

3. Goal Scorer Prediction – Duván Zapata: Despite transfer rumours and injury concerns, Zapata remains crucial for Atalanta. Considering Frosinone’s defence and Zapata’s capabilities, he’s our pick to find the net in this encounter.
