Second placed Atalanta need six more points to secure a place in the top four and going to Match Day 36 of the Italian Serie A, their main target will be to secure three points when they host Benevento. Atalanta head to this game on 72 points while Benevento, who are placed 18th, have 31 points. The hosts are on a nine-game unbeaten run in Serie A and after a 5-2 win over Parma, they’ll be gunning for the same against another relegation threatened side, Benevento. In their last 15 matches in the league, Atalanta’s only loss was against champions Inter Milan; they’ve won 11. Twice in the last three matches, Atalanta have scored five goals but they have just two clean sheets in the last seven. At home in the league, they have six straight wins and are unbeaten in seven; they’ve scored 24 goals in the seven home league matches. Eight of their last 10 home league matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Benevento head to this game from a 3-1 home defeat to Cagliari, a loss that really dents their survival chances, leaving them three points below safety. They’ve now failed to win in seven straight Serie A matches, losing five of them, though they failed to score in just two of the seven. In each of the last five league games, Benevento have conceded two goals or more and as a result four of them have produced over 2.5 goals. In 19 Serie A matches, they have one win, the victory over Juventus in March. The clean sheet in that win is also the only one in 12 matches for Benevento and in their last nine away league matches it is the only win. They have conceded two or more goals in the last three away matches but they’ve scored five goals in the three, with only one game in the last five seeing them fail to score.
