This game gives Napoli an opportunity to stake their claim on another competition this season.
They are currently top of the league but they will not want to focus all their attention on winning only the league title.
With Milan already qualified alongside SS Lazio, Napoli and Juventus qualifying would make the semi final of this Coppa Italia very interesting.
Napoli have won four straight games ahead of this tie and that should give them confidence that they can live up to their tag as favourites.
Their defence however, have been less than impressive when faced with quality fire power and Atalanta could be a big test for them.
Atalanta have performed well below expectations this season based on how impressive they were last season however they will be looking to make a statement in this game.
They lost their last game 2-1 to a very poor Cagliari side and that will have damaged their confidence ahead of this game.
They have scored in their last nine games in all competitions and their recent away trips have seen them win at Everton, AC Milan and Genoa while picking up a point in Torino.
Atalanta lost at this ground already this season as Napoli ran out 3-1 victors the last time they met in August.
