Atalanta vs Fiorentina: An exciting match between two big Italian teams

Atalanta failed to score against Bologna in their last fixture, ending in a goalless draw. Will they score against Fiorentina?

Atalanta are having a tough time at the start of the season

As the championship progresses, Bergamo are bound to pick up their form. This is already an experienced team, once again starting in the Champions League, so some elements of preparation by the coaching staff in the off-season have improved. At the moment, Atalanta are still under pressure. But characteristically, even a very poor form has not prevented Gian Piero Gasperini’s side from taking four points from two games.

In last week’s encounter against Bologna, fate took its toll. In the first game, Atalanta hardly attacked the Torino goal but managed to score twice (2-1), while this time, they occupied the penalty area but failed to do so. Well, fair enough.

Fiorentina play on the attack as planned

There is nothing else to expect from the appointment of former Spezia coach Vincenzo Italiano as Fiorentina coach. The Fiorentina side does play attacking football under the new coach. There is no shortage of players who can create and finish.

So far, Fiorentina suffered a defeat at the hands of Roma and a win against Torino. It could have been better because the encounter in Rome was thwarted by the suspension of goalkeeper Dragowski in the first half. In the second leg, however, the Florentines were 2-1 at home to Torino, with the Torino goal coming just under the wire.

History of head-to-head encounters
