Atalanta’s 6-point edge frames a nine-match Monday watchlist

A nine-match programme across five leagues runs from 16:30 UTC to 00:30 UTC, with table gaps ranging from level points to a 32-point separation. Atalanta v Venezia carries the headline in Italy, where Atalanta’s six-point advantage meets Venezia’s bottom position and five-match losing form. The day also offers several close table meetings, including Torino v Udinese and Talleres Cordoba v Independiente.

Coritiba v Botafogo is the main Brazilian watch. In Regular Season - 30, the pre-match table lists Coritiba #10 on 38 points and Botafogo #13 on 35 points, with Coritiba 3 points ahead. Coritiba’s [LLDLW] ends in a win, while Botafogo’s [LLWDD] closes with two draws. The 19:00 UTC kickoff brings a narrow table gap together with contrasting recent sequences.

La Liga: Levante face Sevilla’s eight-point advantage

Levante’s [LLDWD] ends with a win; Sevilla’s [LWWDL] follows two wins with a defeat. The 19:00 UTC fixture is defined by that table contrast and the different shape of the latest form lines.

Argentina: narrow gaps and contrasting sequences

For Clausura - 12, the supplied table lists Talleres Cordoba #4 in Apertura - Group A on 26 points and Independiente #5 on 24 points, leaving Talleres Cordoba 2 points ahead.
