LiontipsAtalanta vs Benevento. Prediction and Betting Tips for Serie A (May 12, 2021).
Command Analysis
Atalanta performed poorly in the first half of the season and were forced to catch up with the leading teams so they could take part in the competition for the Champions League. Gianpiero Gasperini's team found the strength to get to the second line in the table, but that doesn't guarantee them anything yet: the fifth Juventus has only three points less.
Benevento looked solid in the first half of the season, giving a beautiful performance in many games in the first round. But everything changed for Filippo Inzaghi's team after the winter break. In the most important segment of the tournament, the Witches hit the wall: a 1:3 defeat to Cagliari in the last round extended their streak without victories to seven matches. Currently, Benevento are 18th in the table, but they are only three points behind Spezia.

Tip and bets
Atalanta gained excellent form and absolutely deserved to rise to the second line in the table. However, they still have to defend it and it will be a very difficult task, given the intense competition. The hosts cannot afford mistakes and the motivation obviously is very high - Benevento are on a downturn, their squad is not so strong, and the chances of the Witches for points are minimal.
We believe that the guests have nothing going for them. Our prediction - Asian handicap (-2) to Atalanta.
Atalanta have the best attacking line in Serie A and will clearly rely on it today. Benevento have a very weak defense, and they will most likely concede today. At the same time, the Bergamasks themselves often make mistakes in defense, so the game looks promising.
Our second bet will be on total over 3.5 goals.
