Atalanta vs Sassuolo Preview
Atalanta clash with Sassuolo at New Balance Arena, with kick-off set for 14:45 on Sunday 23 August.
Atalanta, under new head coach Maurizio Sarri, have been relatively quiet in terms of permanent additions this summer, with central midfielder Gianluca Gaetano their main new arrival. Right-back Marco Palestra, centre-back Berat Djimsiti and central midfielder Marco Brescianini are among the main departures, while several players have also returned to their parent clubs following loan spells.
Atalanta finished seventh in Serie A last season with 59 points from 38 matches. Their last league game was a 1-1 away draw against Fiorentina at Stadio Artemio Franchi. La Dea enjoyed 60% possession and managed six shots on target, with a Pietro Comuzzo own goal on the scoresheet.
On Thursday night, Atalanta opened the new season with a 0-0 home draw against Israeli Premier League side Hapoel Tel Aviv in the first leg of their Europa Conference League play-off tie.
It has been a summer of change for Sassuolo, with Alberto Aquilani appointed as head coach and goalkeeper Arijanet Muric and right-back Sebastian Walukiewicz among their leading permanent arrivals. Centre-back Tarik Muharemovic is the standout departure following his move to Leeds, while centre-back Ruan and several other players have also left the club.
Sassuolo finished 11th in the 2025/26 Serie A with 49 points from 38 matches. Their last league game resulted in a 1-0 away defeat to Parma at Stadio Ennio Tardini. I Neroverdi had 48% possession and managed just one shot on target.
Six days ago, Sassuolo made a winning start to the new season, claiming a 3-0 home victory over Serie B outfit Cesena in the Coppa Italia round of 64.

Kieron Bowie (Sassuolo) can be backed at +112 to have a minimum of one shot on goal. He looks like an attractive wager on the Shots on Target market and we recommend backing this player prop bet selection.
Gianluca Scamacca (Atalanta) has racked up three goals in his past seven Serie A home games. We believe that there is merit in backing him for an Anytime Goalscorer prop wager at +140 which means we need to him to be on the scoresheet.
