Juventus look too classy for promoted Spal

BT Sport from 5.30pm

Atalanta v VeronaBT Sport 3, 5.30pm
Atalanta have had a tough set of early fixtures, losing at Napoli and Sampdoria, going down 1-0 at home to Roma, and holding champions Juventus to a 2-2 draw.

Things should get easier with the visit of struggling Verona, who have conceded 19 goals in nine Serie A matches and look set for more disappointment.

Recommendation
Atalanta -1 on handicap
1pt 11-10 Betfair

Key stat
Atalanta have earned ten of their 12 points at home this season.

Juventus v SpalBT Sport ESPN, 7.45pm
Juventus shrugged off an early red card for Mario Mandzukic to win 6-2 at Udinese on Sunday and that result spells trouble for struggling Spal.

The promoted side haven't been blown away in defeats to Napoli (3-2) and the two Milan clubs (both 2-0) but heading to Juve after a run of six losses in seven games is far from ideal.

Recommendation
Juventus to win 3-0
1pt 5-1 general

Key stat
Spal have been losing at half-time in five of their last seven games.
