The Serie A match between Atalanta BC and Venezia on March 1, 2025, presents a stark contrast in team fortunes. Atalanta, currently contending for the Scudetto and positioned third in the league, recently showcased their attacking prowess with a decisive 5-0 victory over Empoli . In contrast, Venezia finds itself languishing in 19th place and is grappling with relegation fears. Their recent performance includes a lackluster 0-0 draw against Lazio and an ongoing struggle to secure points away from home.
Atalanta are all set to host Venezia on matchday 26 of the Serie A 2024-25 season. The hosts are doing well in the league and are also in a tight race for the title alongside Inter Milan and Napoli. They are in the third place on the table. Meanwhile, Venezia are in the relegation zone because of their lacklustre performances this season.
Atalanta dominated Empoli in their last Serie A encounter. This will keep them confident for their upcoming league fixture. The team will be eyeing the top spot in the Serie A table, and for that they should not drop any points going further. Their Champions League campaign ended after they fell prey to Club Brugge in the playoffs phase.

Atalanta have now established themselves as Serie A’s highest-scoring team, while also boasting three consecutive clean sheets in the league. If they keep another shutout against Venezia, it would mark the first time since 1997 that La Dea have recorded four straight clean sheets in Serie A.
A win on Saturday would temporarily lift Atalanta into second place, applying pressure on Inter Milan and Napoli, who face each other later in the evening. However, to maintain their momentum, Atalanta must improve their home form, having drawn their last two league games at Gewiss Stadium before a 3-1 home defeat to Brugge in Europe.
In 2025, Venezia is still looking for their first victory, having failed to score in their last three matches. Despite a strong effort against Roma and earning points against Lazio, Atalanta will be a tougher challenge. I predict the Bergamaschi will win, but not by a large margin Venezia knows their "Salvation" train is about to leave without the
