Pisa is set to host Atalanta at Arena Garibaldi in a crucial Serie A clash on Friday. Pisa finds themselves in a precarious position, with just one win in their 20 league games so far, leaving them second from the bottom in the league standings. On the other hand, Atalanta has been performing relatively well, sitting seventh in the standings with eight wins and 31 points to their name.
Pisa, also known as “The Torri”, has been going through a tough spell, failing to secure a win in their last nine league games, with five defeats in that period. Despite showing some fighting spirit with two draws in their three games in 2026, they were held to a 2-2 stalemate by Udinese last week. The likes of Mattéo Tramoni and Henrik Meister were on the scoresheet for Pisa in that game.
On the contrary, Atalanta, also known as “La Dea”, has been in fine form this year, winning all three of their league games so far. They secured a convincing 2-0 victory over Torino last week, with goals from Charles De Ketelaere and Mario PaÅ¡alić sealing the win for them.
In terms of head-to-head statistics, Atalanta holds the upper hand with 13 wins in their 27 meetings with Pisa. The last eight encounters between the two sides have produced under 2.5 goals, indicating a trend of low-scoring games. Pisa has been the draw specialists in Serie A this season, with 10 draws to their name.
Looking at the injury and suspension news, Pisa will be without Antonio Caracciolo due to suspension, while several key players like Mateus Lusuardi, Juan Cuadrado, and others remain sidelined due to injuries. Atalanta will be missing Berat Djimsiti and Mitchel Bakker due to injuries, with Sead Kolasinac and Raoul Bellanova also set to miss out on the game.
Given the stark contrast in form between the two teams and Pisa’s struggles at home this season, it is likely that Atalanta will emerge victorious in this fixture. Therefore, our prediction for the game is a comfortable 2-0 win for Atalanta.
In terms of betting tips, we recommend backing Atalanta to win, expecting under 2.5 goals in the game, and predicting that both teams will not score. Additionally, we suggest betting on at least one goal to be scored in the first half and backing Charles De Ketelaere to score or assist at any time.
Overall, Atalanta seems to have the upper hand in this matchup, and they are likely to continue their winning streak against Pisa on Friday.
