Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson backs Atalanta to control at home.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Nikola Krstovic to score anytime1/1 (Paddy Power)Nikola Krstovic leads the Atalanta line and should find joy against a Pafos side stepping up from European qualifying. The Montenegro striker is the hosts’ main focal point and will relish facing a defence that conceded in both legs against Dinamo City and shipped three to RB Salzburg over the summer. Atalanta are strong at home and should create a steady stream of chances at the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia. At evens, Krstovic to score anytime is the standout attacking pick in Bergamo, with the service sure to come from a side built to attack.
Atalanta 2-0 Pafos13/2 (bet365)The gulf in quality points to a comfortable Atalanta win, and 2-0 fits a controlled home display against limited opposition. Atalanta beat Venezia 3-1 and kept a clean sheet against Bologna at home in Serie A, and they have the attacking tools to break down a Pafos side whose only recent football has come in European qualifying. The Cypriot debutants should struggle to create much at this level. At 13/2, the 2-0 correct score is the value call at the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia.

How Atalanta go into the game

Atalanta bounced back to form with a 3-1 home win over Venezia, having endured a rocky spell of three straight Serie A defeats before that.

La Dea are typically strong at home and carry far more attacking quality than the visitors, with a clean sheet against Bologna showing they can also keep it tight.

How Pafos go into the game

Pafos earned their place in the league phase with a spirited European summer, holding RB Salzburg to a 3-3 draw and edging past Dinamo City after extra time.

The Cypriot side are enjoying a maiden European adventure but face a steep test against Serie A opposition on the road.

Atalanta vs Pafos head-to-head

The clubs have no competitive history, meeting for the first time in the Conference League.
