Milan will host Atalanta on 18 October 2026 in the seventh round of the Italian Serie A, with both sides seeking three points to improve their league positions.
Milan go into the match sixth in the table with 12 points. They are seven points behind leaders Inter, and will look to build on a convincing midweek victory after drawing 1-1 with Sassuolo in their previous domestic fixture.
The Rossoneri responded to that result by defeating RB Salzburg 4-0. The emphatic win gave Milan momentum ahead of their return to league action and underlined their status as favourites for the meeting with Atalanta.
Atalanta looking to climb the table
Atalanta are 10th in Serie A, having collected nine points from three victories and three defeats. The Bergamo club will be aiming to move up the standings with a positive result at San Siro.
Their latest domestic match ended in a 3-1 win over Venezia. Atalanta then followed that result with another victory in the Conference League, beating Pafos 3-1.
The visitors therefore arrive in Milan after two successive wins, although they remain three points behind their opponents in the league table.
Form and prediction
Milan are regarded as the favourites, but their recent record included in the preview is closely matched with Atalanta’s. Milan have won two of their past five games, while Atalanta have also recorded two victories in their last five.
The most recent meeting between the teams went Atalanta’s way, with the Bergamo side winning 3-2.
The prediction for this match is that both teams will score at least once. The game is expected to be competitive and produce several goals, with Milan’s attacking strength set against Atalanta’s current run of results.
