Atalanta vs Real Madrid Prediction & Betting Tips (10 December)

Since the UEFA Super Cup lost in Warsaw, Atalanta has, unlike the Madrilenians, gained in quality and confidence through the championship but especially in the Champions League where the Dea occupies fourth place in this league phase thanks in particular to to a great success obtained two weeks ago on the pitch of the Swiss Young Boys of Berne 1-6. Before that, the Italians had smashed Stuttgart 0-2, or Shakhtar 0-3, without forgetting their draw on the first day against Arsenal 0-0. Clearly, Bergamo has still not lost in five matches in the competition. All competitions combined, the winner of the C3 has not lost since September 24, a championship evening for the arrival of Calcio Como 2-3 . Since that date, a run of 12 games without defeat has been written, for a resplendent record of 10 victories. This series will have been put to the test against AS Roma, and AC Milan last weekend, two Serie A matches to follow. Nobody really expected it, but Real Madrid are barely installed in 24th position in the standings for this regular season, with 6 small points which correspond to the two victories gleaned at home against Stuttgart 3-1, and Borussia Dortmund 5-2.

Already three defeats for the Merengue in their favorite competition and where they are reigning champions, against Lille on the road 1-0, AC Milan at home 1-3 , and the latest to date, against probably what The best thing in Europe right now is Liverpool 2-0. A meeting marked by the domination of the Reds. This Real Madrid team must find the trigger, like a certain Kylian Mbappé, who seems taken by a feeling of heaviness, and who needs to find the strength within himself to reverse a truly pitiful trend. In the championship, we will remember for a long time the heavy defeat at Berbabéu against FC Barcelona 0-4. However, the Madrilenians came closer in the last few matches with victories against Osasuna 4-0, Leganes 0-3, and Getafe in the derby 2-0. Los Broncos will still have played against Bilbao in the Basque Country, and at Girona last weekend to follow. 

Ineligible to participate in this competition, Scalvini will therefore logically not play this shock long awaited by the supporters who want their revenge from Warsaw. Note that the crucial Zappacosta (piston) is highly uncertain while Scamacca (end of season) is certain to no longer evolve this year. His replacement, in club or selection, is called Retegui, and the latter leaves absolutely nothing to chance by simply being the top scorer in Calcio with 12 goals in addition to his 3 assists and allowed himself to send a double facing Bern. Belgian international playmaker Charles De Ketelaere performed against the Swiss with 3 assists and 2 goals. Carlo Ancelotti will still have to deal with absences. From most important to least important: Vinicius Jr, Carvajal, Militao , Camavinga, and Joan Martinez are on the sidelines (serious injuries) and already out.

On the other hand, David Alaba (resumption of training the week of the match against Liverpool) should make his return soon while Aurélien Tchouaméni and Rodrygo returned to competition against Bilbao for the Frenchman and Getafe for the Brazilian . Against Liverpool, in addition to Camavinga who was at the level, how can we not talk about the young prowess at the central defender position, Raul Asencio who shows character, and above all no complexes. Kylian Mbappé (10 goals, 2 assists in TCC) is clearly a step below despite a good performance against Getafe which just needs to be improved tenfold. The French international seems to suffer mentally and plays with an internal weight, a blockage within him. His biggest challenge will be to free himself from his chains in order to play again with a liberated mind and play more aerial football.
