Arsenal kick off their 39th European campaign with a 2024/25 UEFA Champions League matchday 1 trip to Bergamo to take on last season’s Europa League champions Atalanta BC on Thursday September 19th. The Italian side who won an historic first European trophy last season when they beat Leverkusen to win the Europa League final in Dublin have had a shaky start to the current campaign. They have won just 1 of their opening 3 League games losing the other 2 to find themselves in 12th position in the table at the international break. Arsenal for their part, started their Premier League season with 2 consecutive wins before a draw against Brighton just before the international break, which left them 4th in the table after 3 games. But who will win when the two sides meet in Bergamo. In this betting guide I will provide you with who I think will win the match as well as the latest Atalanta vs Arsenal betting odds.

🏆 Atalanta vs Arsenal CL Prediction – 18/09/2024

At this stage of our betting guide, I am going to talk you through my Atalanta vs Arsenal prediction. The Gewiss stadium in Bergamo will stage the clash between Atalanta and Arsenal as both sides kick off their 2024/25 Champions League campaigns. The Italian side kicked off their season with a 2-0 defeat to Real Madid in their first ever UEFA Supercup appearance. They then had a big 4-0 opening Serie A victory away to Lecce, before losing back-to-back away fixtures to Torino and Inter 2-1 and 4-0 respectively. In their 4 games to date, they have scored 5 goals and conceded 8, with the hammering by Inter just before the international break particularly deflating for Gian Piero Gasperini’s men.

Arsenal under Mikel Arteta have made a solid start to their new campaign, as they set out on their second consecutive Champions League journey under their highly rated head coach. An opening 2-0 Premier League win against Wolves was followed by another 2-0 win, this time against Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, before a 1-1 draw against Brighton just before the break. Arsenal have scored 5 goals in 3 games and have conceded just the once as the defensive solidity which Arsenal showed last season continues into 2024/ 25.

Atalanta, ordinarily at home would be capable of causing most teams all kinds of problems, but I think Arsenal are travelling to Bergamo at a good time given the slow start the Italians have made to the new season. For this reason, I think Arsenal can go away and get an early victory in the Champions League and kick off the new competition in the best possible fashion.

My Prediction: 🏆Atalanta 0 - 2 Arsenal ⚽

✔️ Atalanta vs Arsenal - Betting Tips

In this section I will offer you some Atalanta vs Arsenal betting tips that may be useful if you have any free bets to use.

To find out more about any of the bookmakers listed in this guide check out our betting site reviews page where all the relevant information will be available.

Be sure to check out any terms and conditions that come with any free bets or welcome bonuses.

  • Tip 1 – Back Arsenal to Win: Arsenal are favourites for this game against Atalanta despite being away from home and it’s easy to see why. Arteta’s men are now a formidable side to play against and have the quality up front as well as the defensive strength to navigate these tricky away games in the Champions League. If like me, you think Arsenal will travel to Italy and claim all three points, Betarno are offering odds of 1.86.
  • Tip 2 – Under 2.5 Goals: Given the inconsistent start that Atalanta have made to the new season and the defensive strength that this Arsenal team possesses, I think Arsenal have what it takes to beat the Serie A side in a low scoring affair. Betarno have odds of 2.17 on there being less than 2.5 goals scored during the match.
  • Tip 3 – Back Arsenal to win by 2: I think Arsenal can go to Italy and come away with a victory by 2 goals against an Atalanta side that has not settled into the new season just yet. No Bonus Sports are currently offering odds of 5.33 for Arsenal to go away to Atalanta in the Champions League and come away with a 2-goal winning margin.
