Fiorentina v Atalanta Team News

La Viola, as Fiorentina are otherwise known, had been without a win since October. A slim 1-0 win over bottom-placed SPAL in the Serie A was all Fiorentina could manage and this is expected to be a difficult contest for them. For all reasons.

Domestically, Atalanta are on records - a 5-0 win over AC Milan just went to show how ruthless and efficient Atalanta can get. They are even the highest scorers in the Serie A with 49 goals. Log leaders Juventus are twelve shy with 37 and such is the visitor’s firepower.

Atalanta is well-positioned for a win here given their recent displays but in the Coppa Italia, anything goes and sometimes passion excels physical excellence. We could be in for a cracker of a match at the Stadio Olimpico which ironically hosts the final of this competition.

If history counts for anything, Fiorentina has the upper hand in the 130 meetings between these two sides (W57 D43 L30) and inside the 98-year history of the cup, they have won it 6 times while Atalanta has only claimed it once. Are the visitors well on their way to glory?

Overall, an entertaining clash is expected here as 4 of their last 5 meetings have seen over 2.5 goals and given Atalanta’s scoring prowess, the hosts should be wary of the visitors’ dangerous attacking duo of L. Muriel and J.Illicic with a combined 19 league goals. They might just win Atalanta this cup-tie.

Injured or Suspended Players:

Neither team has any new major injury concerns heading into this fixture. Both tacticians will have the full squads at their disposal save for some lingering long-term absentees.

Fiorentina - 3.28

Fiorentina vs Atalanta Predictions

Atalanta’s most recent result was a draw against Inter Milan in the league, a game where the side missed a penalty and a chance for all three points. They will now come here against a shaky Fiorentina side looking to garner a win as well. They just might, and the visitors might have it in them to claim Fiorentina’s scalp.
