Our take

Atalanta were clear favourites.

Atalanta were the stronger side on L90 Strength (60 vs 14). Recent goals, xG and shots on target narrow the gap for Venezia. Venezia were without G. Busio and R. Haps. Atalanta had 22 days of rest, Venezia 22.9 and had to travel 209 km. Conditions were neutral.

Total impact vs full squads

From eScored squad data: each player's weight is his role (core 3, starter 2, rotation 1, depth 0.5) times his share of minutes. Defenders and keepers count to the defence line, forwards to attack, midfielders half to each. EloLambda turns the lost share into fewer goals scored and more conceded (weight 0.1); the totals show how that moves the result chances.
