⚽️ It’s only Tuesday, but the Serie A is not sleeping! While the other leagues are on hold until the weekend, the Italian top league resumes already today.
🇮🇹 Serie A
After a courageous performance on Saturday, the SSC Napoli regained the spot at the top of the ladder, though by only a tiny margin over second placed AS Roma and AC Milan.
The Rossonieri will face a tough match at Atalanta Bergamo Tuesday night, before hosting the Giallorossi at home on Sunday.
Atalanta Bergamovs
AC Milan
For Ademola Lookman, it has been a difficult season so far. The SFM sees him to stay once again without a goal with a median probability of more than 70%. Charles De Ketelaere is instead the most likely candidate to put Atalanta onto the scoring board.
On the other side, Rafael Leao has had a good run lately, with three goals in the last two games. However, the SFM sees his chances of scoring at last once with only a probability of about 25%. Even lower are the odds forSantiago Gimenez, who, in eight appearances, has so far struggled to find the back of the net.
AS Romavs
Parma Calcio
Lastly, a quick look at AS Roma who is hosting Parma Calcio.
For Parma, the odds of scoring for either Patrick Cutrone or Mateo Pellegrino – the only two Parma players to have scored so far – seem to be pretty much stacked against them.
For the Giallorossi, the picture looks vastly different: both Matias Soulé and Evan Ferguson are given a more than one in three chance to score at least once.
