Atalanta host Bologna at the New Balance Arena on Monday evening in a meeting of two sides looking to find their feet in the opening weeks of the new Serie A season.

Atalanta’s form has been solid through the summer. Their most recent outing brought a 2-1 win at home over Sassuolo in the league. Prior to that, a goalless draw at home to Hapoel Tel Aviv in Europe was a quieter night. Before that, a 1-0 home win over Athletic Bilbao was a useful pre-season result. Earlier in this run, a 3-0 win away at Schalke and a 2-1 defeat away at Feyenoord complete a five-match sequence of three wins, one draw and a single loss.

Bologna’s form has been considerably tougher. Their most recent outing ended in a 0-1 home defeat to Lazio in the league. Prior to that, a 1-0 defeat away at Brighton continued a difficult run. Before that, a 1-4 home defeat to Pisa started their poor sequence. Earlier in this run, two separate 3-1 home wins over Cambuur complete a five-game spell of two wins and three losses.

The head-to-head record between the two sides is closely balanced, with Atalanta and Bologna winning two of the last five meetings apiece and one draw. Most recently, Bologna won 1-0 away at Atalanta. In the previous encounter, Atalanta won 2-0 away at Bologna.

In Italy, the match is live on DAZN Italia and Sky Sport Calcio, available via Sky Go Italia and NOW TV. In the UK and Ireland, coverage is on DAZN UK, while viewers in the United States can catch the action on Paramount+ and Peacock.

Barcelona host Rayo Vallecano at the Spotify Camp Nou on Monday evening as the Catalans look to continue an excellent start to the season against opponents who have struggled to find any consistency of their own.

Barcelona’s form has been outstanding. Their most recent outing brought a 5-0 win away at Elche to open the league campaign. Prior to that, a 2-1 home win over Al Ahly was a solid warm-up result. Before that, a 5-2 win away at Basel started their goalscoring form. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 defeat at home to Udinese was the only blemish. Their run started with a 1-0 home win over Nottingham that completes a five-match sequence of four wins and a single loss.

Rayo Vallecano’s form has been much more difficult. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-1 draw at home to Alaves. Prior to that, a 2-1 defeat away at Sevilla was a tough loss against solid opposition. Before that, a 3-0 defeat away at Ipswich in a friendly did nothing for thier confidence. Earlier in this run, a 3-2 win away at Charleroi was the only bright spot, preceded by a 2-1 defeat away at Feyenoord that completes a five-game spell of one win, one draw and three losses.

The head-to-head record favours Barcelona, who have won four of the last five meetings, with one draw and no wins for Rayo Vallecano. Most recently, Barcelona won 1-0 at home. In the previous encounter, the sides drew 1-1 away at Rayo Vallecano.

Aston Villa host Arsenal at Villa Park on Monday evening as the hosts look to arrest a torrid run of results against opponents who have shown genuine promise in patches of their own pre-season.

Villa’s form could hardly be worse heading into this one. Their most recent outing ended in a 4-0 home defeat to Brighton in the league. Prior to that, a 2-1 loss away at Borussia Monchengladbach continued a difficult spell. Before that, a 2-1 defeat away at PSG in the Super Cup extended the run further.

Real Madrid host Malaga at the Santiago Bernabéu on Sunday afternoon as the league leaders look to maintain their perfect start against opponents who have struggled for consistency in recent weeks.

Real Madrid’s form could scarcely be better. Their most recent outing brought a 4-1 win at home over Real Sociedad to remain top of the table. Prior to that, a 2-1 win away at Espanyol started their season nicely. Before that, a 3-0 win away at Schalke was a routine pre-season workout. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 win at Deportivo A Coruña and a 2-1 win away at Ferencvaros complete a five-match sequence of five wins from five, with no draws or defeats in that span.

Malaga’s form has been considerably shakier. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-1 draw at home to Deportivo A Coruña.

Manchester United host Ipswich Town at Old Trafford on Sunday evening as the hosts look to arrest a difficult start to the season against a newly-promoted side who have made an outstanding beginning to their own campaign.

United’s form has been inconsistent through the closing weeks of summer. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-0 defeat away at Hull in the league. Prior to that, a 2-4 home defeat to AC Milan started their difficult run. Before that, a penalty shootout win over Leeds following a 1-1 draw was a rare bright spot. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away at PSG and a 2-1 home win over Atletico Madrid complete a five-match sequence of two wins, one draw and two losses.

Ipswich, by contrast, arrive on the back of a perfect run. Their most recent outing brought a 3-1 win away at Leicester in the cup. Prior to that, a 2-1 home win over Sunderland continued the good form. Before that, a 4-2 win away at Union Berlin was an impressive pre-season result. Earlier in this run, a 3-0 home win over Rayo Vallecano and a 1-0 home win over Le Havre complete a five-game spell of five wins from five, with no draws or defeats in that stretch.

The head-to-head record favours Manchester United, who have won four of the last five meetings, with one draw and no wins for Ipswich Town. Most recently, Manchester United won 3-2 at home. In the previous encounter, the sides drew 1-1 at Ipswich. History clearly favours the hosts heading into this one.

Leeds arrive full of confidence. Their most recent outing brought a 2-0 win away at Nottingham in the cup. Prior to that, a 1-0 win away at the same opponents in the league kept the good run going. Before that, a 4-0 home win over Augsburg was a strong pre-season display. Earlier in this run, a penalty shootout defeat to Manchester United following a 1-1 draw was the only blemish, preceded by a 2-0 home win over RB Leipzig that completes a five-match sequence of four wins and a single loss.

Brentford’s form has been equally impressive. Their most recent outing was a 6-1 win away at Birmingham in the EFL cup. Prior to that, a 3-0 home win over Tottenham in the league continued the momentum. Before that, a 7-0 home win over Eintracht Frankfurt was a statement pre-season result.

Sevilla host Atletico Madrid at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán on Saturday evening as the early league leaders look to continue their perfect start against opponents who have shown flashes of quality but lacked consistency of their own.

Sevilla’s form has been excellent through the opening weeks of the season. Their most recent outing brought a 3-1 win away at Athletic Bilbao to put them top of the table. Prior to that, a 2-1 home win over Rayo Vallecano started their early season momentum. Before that, a 2-1 defeat away at Bayer Leverkusen was the only blemish in an otherwise strong pre-season. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 win away at Utrecht and a 2-1 win away at Nijmegen complete a five-match sequence of four wins and a single loss.

Atletico Madrid arrive in more mixed shape. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-2 draw at home to Villarreal. Prior to that, a 2-0 home win over Malaga was a routine result. Before that, a 2-1 win away at Marseille continued the good form. Earlier in this run, a 3-1 defeat away at Manchester City followed a 2-1 loss away at Manchester United, completing a five-game spell of two wins, one draw and two losses.

The head-to-head record favours Atletico Madrid, who have won three of the last five meetings, with no draws and two wins for Sevilla. Most recently, Sevilla won 2-1 at home.

Tottenham host Newcastle United at their own stadium on Saturday evening as both sides look to arrest difficult starts to the season, with neither having tasted victory in the league so far.

Spurs’ recent form has been underwhelming. Their most recent outing ended in a 3-0 defeat away at Brentford. Prior to that, a 2-2 draw with Hoffenheim was the final pre-season fixture. Before that, a 3-0 win over the same opponents was a much sharper display. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw with Getafe and a 2-1 win away at Chelsea complete a five-match sequence of two wins, two draws and a single defeat.

Newcastle arrive in similarly patchy shape. Their most recent outing brought a 2-2 draw at home to Liverpool in the league. Prior to that, a penalty shootout defeat to Strasbourg following a 1-1 draw was a disappointing pre-season send-off. Before that, a 1-2 home defeat to Bayer Leverkusen continued a difficult run. Earlier in this run, a 1-3 home loss to Everton preceded a 2-1 win away at Valencia, completing a five-game spell of one win, one draw and three losses.

The head-to-head record favours Newcastle United, who have won three of the last five meetings, with two draws and no wins for Tottenham Hotspur. Most recently, Newcastle won 2-1 away at Tottenham.

Liverpool host Nottingham Forest at Anfield on Saturday lunchtime as both sides look to find some early-season rhythm after mixed starts to the campaign.

Liverpool’s form has been underwhelming through the closing weeks of the summer. Their most recent outing ended in a 2-2 draw away at Newcastle in the league after a last second penalty saved their bacon. Prior to that, a 2-0 win at home over Como was a bright spot. Before that, a goalless draw with the same opponents was less convincing. Earlier in this run, a 2-3 home defeat to Monaco and a 2-4 loss to Leeds complete a five-match sequence of one win, two draws and two losses.

Nottingham Forest arrive in similarly patchy shape. Their most recent outing brought a 0-1 home defeat to Leeds in the league. Prior to that, a 2-0 home win over Brest was an encouraging win. Before that, a 2-1 home win over Bayer Leverkusen started a good run of two wins. Earlier in this run, back-to-back 1-0 defeats away at Barcelona and at Udinese complete a five-game spell of two wins and three losses.

The head-to-head record between the two sides is evenly poised, with Liverpool and Nottingham Forest winning two of the last five meetings apiece and one draw. Most recently, Liverpool won 1-0 away at Nottingham. In the previous encounter, Nottingham Forest won 3-0 away at Liverpool.

In the UK and Ireland, the match is live on TNT Sports 1 and available to stream via HBO Max, with TNT Sports Ultimate also carrying the fixture.
