Atalanta vs Fiorentina Preview

Atalanta have been doing well in Europe this season, however, while they finished in the top four last season, they would be glad if they can land inside the top seven by the end of this season.

After losing 3-2 to Borussia Dortmund on Thursday, they would be looking to bounce back to winning ways in this game as they face a Fiorentina side that have almost no chance of making it into Europe.

Atalanta won their last home league game 1-0 against Chievo; they have impressively avoided losing in 75% of their home games this season and they have lost only 2 of their last 11 league games.

Fiorentina are a team whose major goal would be to stop losing games.

They come into this game after losing 3 of their last 4 games.

In that run of games, they lost 4-1 to Hellas Verona who are 2^nd from bottom of the Serie A table.

They have failed to win away to any team above them in the league table and they have five losses from their last 12 away games heading into this match.
