ATN vs CAG Dream11 Prediction: In the Serie A, Atalanta will square off against Cagliari at the Gewiss Stadium on Saturday night. Atalanta – who led the league in goals scored last season – have started this campaign in similar fashion having scored eight goals across their two games with the midweek 1-4 win at Lazio particularly impressive. Gian Piero Gasperini’s attacking philosophy is paying dividends right now and they will surely have similar joy against a Cagliari defence who have kept just once clean sheet in this last eight league matches dating back to last season. With those statistics in mind, getting behind the hosts looks like a tempting proposition.
