Team Analysis
This week, various cup competitions are underway, and the Italian Cup has entered its second matchday with the Round of 16 fixtures. Before the New Year, two strong teams were eliminated, both playing at home: Napoli suffered a 0-4 defeat, while Inter Milan drew 0-0 in extra time and was eliminated. Tonight, two more matches feature strong teams hosting, namely Atalanta and Juventus.
Atalanta has demonstrated a strong performance in the Italian Cup, reaching the quarterfinals in the last two seasons and narrowly losing to Juventus in the 20-21 final. This highlights the team's favor for this cup competition. In the current league season, they rank sixth with 50% wins in 18 matches. Last season, they participated in the Europa League and comfortably topped their group. Returning to the league in the last three matches, they secured 2 wins and suffered 1 loss. The victories came at their home ground, where they will play tonight. In December, they had a three-game winning streak, facing strong opponents like AC Milan.As for the away team, Sassuolo, they narrowly avoided relegation last season and are currently hovering on the edge of the relegation zone, only two points above. In the last 10 rounds, they only managed one victory, and that was against the bottom-placed Empoli. Their recent form has been poor, with four losses and one draw in December, showing a decline in performance.
Odds Analysis
In their first encounter of the season in the league, Atalanta easily defeated Sassuolo 2-0 as the away team, maintaining a historical record of 7 consecutive wins in head-to-head matchups. All signs point towards Atalanta having a good chance of winning. However, as demonstrated by Napoli and Inter Milan in previous Italian Cup matches, being a cup competition introduces unpredictability. Tonight, the statistics suggest that as long as Atalanta wins, they will remain unbeaten. Considering the poor performance of Sassuolo in December, the momentum is overwhelmingly in favor of the home team. While Atalanta is likely to advance, a victory within regular time may not be guaranteed, given the recent form of Sassuolo.
