In contrast, Spezia defeated Torino, led by Ivan Juric, in the league. M’Bala Nzola, an Angolan striker, converted a penalty kick to secure Spezia’s victory.

Atalanta vs Spezia Prediction :
Sixth in the league, Atalanta has won two of their last five league games. After scoring eight goals against Salernitana in the league, they are three points behind fourth-place Inter Milan and will be overjoyed. Also, if the club decides to sell players like Teun Koopmeiners and Ademola Lookman, they will undoubtedly make a lot of money.
Despite the fact that Atalanta has lost some of the sparks that Gasperini football had during its peak, they have established themselves as a formidable opponent in the Italian top flight in recent years. Even though they have lost key players like Papu Gomez, Josip Ilicic, and Remo Freuler, who helped Gasperini establish Atalanta, they continue to play an exciting style of football.
Prediction: Atalanta 2-0 Spezia
