Atalanta vs Chelsea Betting Odds
7bet offers competitive odds for all UEFA Champions League matches, including this fixture.
Please note that the odds are accurate as of the publishing time of the article. Make sure to check the latest odds before placing a bet.
1X2 Odds Betting Odds
| Atalanta BC (1) | X | Chelsea (2) |
| 9/4 | 12/5 | 1/1 |
The 1X2 betting market is the most popular and easy-to-understand option in football betting. It offers three possible outcomes:
- 1: Home team (Atalanta) to win
- X: Match to end in a draw
- 2: Away team (Chelsea) to win
Looking at the Atalanta vs Chelsea betting odds, the odds are 9/4 for Atalanta, 12/5 for a draw, and 1/1 for Chelsea. These numbers represent the potential payout for each outcome. So, a correct bet on Atalanta at 9/4 odds pays £9 profit for every £4 wagered. A draw with 12/5 odds will return £12 profit for every £5, and a successful bet on Chelsea at even money odds pays a pound for every pound wagered. With each win, your original stake is also returned.
Upon simplifying the odds, bets on Atalanta pay £2.25 per pound while bets on Chelsea pay a pound per pound. Bets with lower payouts are said to have short odds because they have a higher likelihood of winning. In this case, Chelsea’s odds are short, which indicates it could be a favourite in this fixture.
However, odds are just based on probabilities and don’t affect the actual outcome. Both teams have an equal win-loss-draw record in the five Champions League matches. Look at their recent domestic and European form before placing your bets.
Double Chance Odds
| Atalanta or Draw | Atalanta or Chelsea | Draw or Chelsea |
| 4/6 | 4/15 | 3/10 |
The Double Chance betting market is low-risk compared to 1X2, as it allows you to cover two outcomes instead of one:
- 1X: Atalanta wins, or the match ends in a draw (the bet loses if Chelsea wins).
- X2: Draw or Chelsea wins (the bet loses if Atalanta wins).
- 12: Either team wins (the bet loses if the match ends in a draw).
This market is a safer choice for cautious bettors or if you are unsure of which team to back. Also, if both teams appear to be evenly matched in their form, you can choose this market to reduce risk. However, bettors should note that the potential payout in Double Chance is lower compared to 1X2. The odds are shorter in this market, which means a smaller profit. Consider this market in an accumulator bet.
Before betting, review both teams’ recent form and consistency. Atalanta recorded 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses in their last 10 matches, while Chelsea managed 6 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws in the same period.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Atalanta BC (+0.5) | Chelsea (-0.5) |
| 20/27 | 20/21 |
| Atalanta BC (+1.5) | Chelsea (-1.5) |
| 4/15 | 5/2 |
| Atalanta BC (-0.75) | Chelsea (+0.75) |
| 3/1 | 2/9 |
Handicaps balance the bets when both teams appear to be mismatched in strength. For example, Chelsea has lifted the Champions League trophy twice while Atalanta has never won it before. So, Chelsea can be considered a stronger team in this fixture. Let’s say you want to bet on Atalanta but are not sure if they will win against the English team. With a handicap bet, you can give them a virtual head start by giving them extra points. The same number of points will be subtracted from Chelsea.
If you select a +0.75 handicap for Atalanta, a final score of 0–1 will be read as 0.75–0.25. This means bets on Atalanta will win even if they lose the match.
However, it is important to keep the goal margin in mind when selecting the handicap. Here are a few examples:
- Atalanta (+0.5) / Chelsea (+0.5): This is the default handicap on 7bet’s betting page for this fixture. It gives an advantage to Atalanta in case of a draw.
- Atalanta (-0.75) / Chelsea (+0.75): Chelsea gets a one-goal lead with this handicap. For example, if they lose 1–0, the handicap will be adjusted as 0.25–0.75. Atalanta will need to win with a two-goal difference to overcome the gap.
- Atalanta (+1.5) / Chelsea (-1.5): Atalanta gets a two-goal lead here as a score of 0–2 will be adjusted to 1.5–0.5. A three-goal gap like 0–3 will lead to a draw (1.5–1.5). Chelsea will need to win the match with a 4-goal difference to overcome the handicap.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
| Yes | No |
| 4/7 | 5/4 |
In this market, bettors have to predict whether both sides will score during the match. You can choose “Yes” if you think each team will find the net at least once, or “No” if you expect that either or both teams won’t score.
BTTS Yes bets win as long as the score is at least 1–1. The final winner or score doesn’t matter here. As long as both teams score, your bet wins. On the other hand, “No” bets win if the final score has a zero in like 0–1, 1–0, 0–0, etc.
When looking at the Atalanta vs Chelsea odds in this market, consider how many times both teams kept a clean sheet (where the opponent couldn’t score).
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 4/6 | 11/10 |
Bet on how many goals will be scored in the match. For example, if you bet that over 2.5 goals will be scored, your wager wins if the combined goal tally is three or higher. So, any score like 1–2, 2–2, or 0–3 wins.
Similarly, if you bet Under 2.5, the final combined goals should be two or lower. Scores like 0–1, 0–0, or 0–2 will win in this bet.
In their last 10 matches, Chelsea scored an average of 2.3 goals per match, and Atalanta averaged 1.3. This brings their combined average total to 3.6. Use this data when looking at the Atalanta vs Chelsea odds in the Goals Total market.
