Will This Season See Atalanta Win Their First Serie A Title?


We haven't seen a three-way Serie A title contest in a long time. It appears that the Scudetto run-in this season will be extremely close.

As the calendar year finale approaches, the top three are separated by just three points. Many fans utilize online betting sites to assess the odds in what looks to be one of the most exciting title chases in recent Serie A history because of the extremely narrow margins at stake.

Atalanta and Napoli are still very much in the running for the title, together with the defending champions and clear favorites Inter. Gian Piero Gasperini's team could, in fact, conclude the year as the leaders. But in their final 2024 match, they have to defeat Lazio, another top-four challenger.

Napoli would be able to take the lead if Atalanta were to suffer a setback at Stadio San Siro. Antonio Conte's team is just two points behind La Dea going into their seemingly straightforward home matchup with relegation-threatened Venezia.

Third-place Inter has a game in hand over both teams above them, even though they are one point below Napoli. On Monday, Simone Inzaghi's team defeated Como, a newcomer, 2-0 at Giuseppe Meazz to record their fourth straight league victory.


Amazing Football

Atalanta's football, with all due respect to Inter, has been exceptional. With Ademola Lookman, Mateo Retegui, and Charles De Ketelaere playing at their best, Gasperini's team has become one of the most exciting in all of Europe, let alone Serie A.

Winning isn't everything. As evidenced by their most recent 3-2 victory over Empoli at home, Atalanta frequently packs a punch when they win. They scored another treble, including a brace from Lookman and Nicolò Zaniolo in the first half, despite losing Retegui to an injury in the first half.

With a late goal from De Ketelaere, Atalanta's league total this season now stands at a tie-high 42 goals. Additionally, 76% of Gasperini's free-firing team's Premier League games this season have seen them score two or more goals. They have accomplished this in 13 games, surpassing even their nearest rivals, Inter 2.

A Winning Attitude

The stunning UEFA Europa League victory from the previous season was the ideal illustration of Atalanta's newfound dominance. They had, however, faltered early in the season, dropping their first three league games.

Now, that is a faraway memory. Since a 1-1 tie at Bologna in late September, Gasperini's team has won 11 straight Serie A games. They have defeated powerhouses like Milan, Napoli, and Roma along the way, demonstrating a renewed capacity to perform well in crucial games—a significant improvement over previous seasons.


Their goals may go well beyond finishing in the top four if they can keep up this pace. With one of Italy's best football minds at the helm and this team full of confidence, there's no reason to believe differently.

At the moment, Gasperini is in a different league. His elite team is untouchable in domestic competition. As it stands, Atalanta has the potential to write yet another incredible chapter in European football this season.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly ...

🏅Mateta shines as France defeats Egypt, securing a gold medal clash with Spain.

On Monday night, France hosted two Olympic semi-finals. This is what occurred. France advances to the final following a fierce clash with Egypt. In a tense contest, France rallied from a 1-0 deficit to defeat Egypt 2-1 in extra time. After a poor start, France improved just before the interval, with Loïc Badé hitting the post after Joris Chotard's pass. Alexandre Lacazette had a golden opportunity to score in the second half, but he hesitated and ultimately missed the shot. After absorbing all of France's pressure, Egypt proceeded to the other end, where Mahmoud Saber smashed a powerful attempt into the roof of the net. The goal ignited the game, and Hamza Alaa made a wonderful save on a Jean-Philippe Mateta header. France then hit the post twice in quick succession, with Lacazette's shot and Badé's follow-up hitting the woodwork. Les Bleus equalised thanks to a brilliantly weighted ball from Michael Olise, which Mateta converted decisively. France requested for ...
