Fiorentina vs Atalanta Preview

Fiorentina vs Atalanta

Competition – Serie A

Stadium – Stadio Artemio Franchi

Date: 30th September 2018

Kick-off time – 14:00 GMT

Fiorentina look to continue their impressive start to the season when they welcome Atalanta, while the visitors would be looking for their second win of the season as they visit La Viola.

Fiorentina are currently 5th in Serie A after making a good start to the season that has seen them win 3 and lose 2 of their first 6 league games.

They are hoping to get into a European place at the end of the season, and if they keep this form going they might achieve that goal.

They were beaten 2-1 by Inter Milan in midweek which was the 3rd time they have dropped points in as many away games.

However, they have a 100 record at home as they have won their three home games, scoring 10 goals and conceding just once.

Atalanta haven’t had the start to their season that we all expected as they have collected just 6 points from as many games, winning just once and losing twice.

As a matter of fact, Atalanta haven’t won a league game since the opening day of the league season when they beat Frosinone 4-0.

Atalanta have lost two and drawn two of their last four games ahead of this match, and it will be interesting to see if they can bounce back in this game.

Bookmakers make Fiorentina steady favourites at home however odds are close and Atalanta will have their supporters.

This game gets underway at 14:00 UK time.
