Atalanta BC Hosts Sassuolo in Anticipated Serie A Clash

Bergamo, Italy — Atalanta BC will look to rejuvenate their Serie A campaign when they face Sassuolo on Sunday, November 9, 2025, at 11:30 a.m. UK time.

After snagging a long-awaited win in midweek, Atalanta hopes to build on that momentum against Sassuolo, who were recently promoted back to the top tier of Italian football.

Atalanta, currently mid-table, suffered their first league defeat last weekend, losing 1-0 to Udinese. This ended their nine-match unbeaten streak across all competitions. The team had struggled with only two victories, marking their lowest tally at this stage in over ten years.

Sassuolo, on the other hand, also shares the same points as Atalanta, having faced inconsistent results that include a recent loss to Genoa. However, they remain unbeaten in their last three away outings.

Atalanta has a strong home record against Sassuolo, winning their last seven consecutive matches against the Neroverdi, who have lost 11 of their last 14 Serie A encounters with Atalanta.

Head coach Ivan Juric‘s team will aim to solidify their status in Serie A after a challenging start, while Sassuolo looks to exploit any uncertainty surrounding Atalanta’s squad.

Atalanta’s lineup is expected to feature Adama Lookman, who is set to make his 100th Serie A appearance. The team welcomes back captain Marten de Roon, alongside Daniel Maldini who has returned to training.

Sassuolo, coached by Alessio Dionisi, is coping with injuries to Cristian Volpato, Laurs Skjellerup, Daniel Boloca, and Edoardo Pieragnolo, but winger Domenico Berardi is anticipated to contribute significantly to their attacking efforts.

With a looming international break, both teams are looking to secure a much-needed win before pausing their campaigns for national duties.

The match promises to be exciting as both teams strive to improve their current standings in the Serie A.
