Match Stats

A tense tactical matchup ended in a goalless draw between Atalanta and Arsenal on Thursday, leaving La Dea frustrated for not securing maximum points. Marco Carnesecchi made a notable first-half save, but it was David Raya's heroics in goal that stole the spotlight, denying Mateo Retegui twice from the penalty spot. Despite the draw, last season's Europa League winners earned a valuable point in their Champions League return, following a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory against Fiorentina. Atalanta now sits on six points from four Serie A matches and has the highest Expected Goals total (7.89), with a versatile attack contributing to their scoring, including four headed goals. 

Gian Piero Gasperini's side aims to secure back-to-back wins against Como, a team they have historically dominated at home, remaining unbeaten in their last eight Serie A matches against them. While Como leads their overall head-to-head with seven wins, they currently sit in 18th place, still seeking their first victory after being eliminated from the Coppa Italia. Following promotion, they faced challenges playing their initial matches away from home, earning just one point before last week’s return. However, they squandered a two-goal lead against Bologna, making their upcoming clash with Atalanta a daunting task, despite hopes of exploiting the home side's occasional defensive vulnerabilities.
