Atalanta vs Cremonese: Can La Dea Keep Their Winning Streak Alive?
Atalanta returns to the New Balance Arena tonight, facing a struggling Cremonese side in a match that carries very different stakes for the two teams. La Dea are chasing European football and have shown a remarkable resurgence under Raffaele Palladino. Just days after dismantling Juventus 3-0 in the Coppa Italia, Atalanta sit seventh in Serie A, brimming with confidence, even if they are just outside the guaranteed European spots.
Defensively, Atalanta are rock solid. Marco Carnesecchi, their standout goalkeeper, has been exceptional, maintaining the highest save rate across Europe’s top five leagues. Only one league goal conceded in 2026 speaks volumes about the team’s structure and discipline. Up front, players like Gianluca Scamacca, Raspadori and De Ketelaere are finding their rhythm and their fluid attack has kept Atalanta competitive across multiple competitions. The return of Mitchel Bakker also strengthens an already resilient squad.

For Cremonese, the situation is much more precarious. They’ve gone nine games without a win and are dangerously close to the drop zone. Veteran striker Jamie Vardy, despite his experience, has struggled to convert chances and the team’s offensive woes have been glaring—they’ve scored only two goals so far this year and are currently on a four-match goalless streak. Injuries and suspensions further complicate their challenge, with key players like Michele Collocolo and Antonio Sanabria sidelined. Davide Nicola’s side will have to dig deep to turn their fortunes around, but history is hardly on their side. Cremonese have never won in Bergamo in Serie A and Atalanta has consistently been a thorn in their side.
Tonight’s game will test Atalanta’s ability to balance their domestic and European ambitions. A win could extend their home dominance and strengthen their push for a Champions League spot. For Cremonese, survival is the motivator—they must find a spark against a team that has been almost flawless at home. Expect Atalanta to control possession, press effectively and rely on their clinical finishing. Cremonese may attempt to hit on the counter, but breaking down a defense as organized as Atalanta’s will be a monumental task.
This fixture is more than just three points. It’s a clash between ambition and survival, momentum and desperation. Fans across the globe will be watching to see if Atalanta can continue their streak or if Cremonese can finally halt their slide. Stay tuned, because the drama unfolding in Bergamo could have implications for Serie A standings and relegation battles alike.
