In the last seven the Piedmontese have won only once in the Nerazzurri’s away match against the Bergamo team
In Bergamo in the most recent matches between the Granata and the Nerazzurri the balance dominated. If you count the last 11 matches, those since the Piedmontese returned to Serie A in the 2012-13 season, you can find 4 victories for Torino, 4 for Atalanta and 3 draws. The goal count is also well balanced: 21 for Toro and 20 for Dea. In the last match the Bergamo players won 3-1, thanks to a hat-trick from Koopmeiners, who converted two penalties, and Vlasic’s goal for the guests.
Atalanta-Turin, from 4-4 to 1-5: goals scored in Bergamo

21 goals in 11 games is certainly a significant figure: Torino has always scored several goals in Bergamo in recent years. The average is almost two goals per game. Even in the Juric era, when Toro struggled to score, the Granata produced pyrotechnic matches at the Gewiss Stadium. In addition to the aforementioned 3-1, a 4-4 came out in the Croatian’s first year in Piedmont. But not only that, in previous years you can read a 3-3 in 2021 and a 2-3 the previous season. The most memorable result, however, remains that 1-5 in Ventura’s first year in Serie A: after the Nerazzurri’s initial lead with Denis, the Granata came out on top with goals from Bianchi (a brace), Gazzi, Stevanovic and D’ Ambrosio.
Atalanta-Turin: the Granata have struggled to win lately

There is one fact that does not please the Granata: Torino have won only once in the last seven games in Bergamo. The Piedmontese struggled for various reasons, perhaps even a bit of bad luck. The last success dates back to 2019, when Mazzarri’s Toro won 2-3 against the Nerazzurri in Parma, since the Gewiss Stadium was under renovation. Bonifazi, Berenguer and Izzo scored for the Granata. The Nerazzurri responded with a brace from Duvan. The Colombian himself could be decisive on Sunday. He had already scored a brace in the first leg, repaying the affection of the Granata fans, and will want to drag them to Europe.
