Atalanta vs AC Milan Preview

The New Balance Arena becomes the stage for a titanic Serie A showdown as Atalanta host AC Milan on Tuesday, 28th October 2025, with kick-off scheduled for 19:45 GMT. This encounter promises to be a captivating clash between two of Italian football’s most compelling sides, each bringing contrasting narratives and ambitions to this midweek fixture. La Dea find themselves navigating through treacherous waters, with their recent form revealing a concerning pattern of draws that has seen them struggle to find the cutting edge required to secure victories. Their last five outings have produced just one win and four draws—a sequence that underlines their difficulty in converting dominance into three points. Most recently, they salvaged a 1-1 draw at Cremonese, extending a frustrating run that has also seen them held to goalless ties by both Slavia Prague in the Champions League and Lazio in Serie A action. Another 1-1 home draw with Como and their solitary victory—a 2-1 home triumph over Club Brugge in European competition—complete the picture of a side capable of competing but unable to deliver the killer blow. This lack of ruthlessness will be a major concern as they prepare to face one of the division’s most dangerous opponents.

AC Milan arrive in Bergamo in considerably better spirits, having assembled an impressive unbeaten run that has seen them collect three victories and two draws from their last five matches. The Rossoneri have rediscovered their winning formula, with their most recent outing producing a hard-fought 2-2 draw at Pisa in Serie A. Prior to that, they secured a vital 2-1 home victory over Fiorentina, demonstrating their ability to grind out results when it matters most. They were held to a goalless draw at Juventus in a tightly contested encounter, but bounced back with another 2-1 home triumph—this time against Napoli. The highlight of their recent run came in a commanding 3-0 home victory over Lecce in the Coppa Italia, showcasing their attacking prowess and defensive solidity in equal measure. This sequence has positioned Milan as genuine contenders for European qualification, and they’ll view this trip to Bergamo as an opportunity to make a statement of intent. However, history is firmly against the Rossoneri in this fixture, with Atalanta having dominated recent encounters, winning four of the last five meetings. La Dea claimed a 1-0 victory away at Milan in April 2025, secured a commanding 2-1 home triumph in December 2024, edged a 2-1 victory in the Coppa Italia in January 2024, and demolished Milan 3-2 at home in December 2023. The only blemish on Atalanta’s recent dominance was a 1-1 draw in February 2024. This overwhelming head-to-head advantage will give the home side enormous psychological confidence heading into this clash.

The tactical chess match promises to deliver compelling viewing, with Atalanta’s high-intensity pressing game set to collide with Milan’s more measured, possession-based approach. The home side will look to exploit their passionate support and use the energy of their crowd to overwhelm Milan in the opening exchanges, while the visitors will seek to weather any early storm before imposing their technical quality on proceedings. Every duel, every tactical adjustment, and every moment of individual brilliance could prove decisive in determining who emerges victorious from this Serie A blockbuster.
