Atalanta form and stats

1 victory, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Atalanta have to build on here at KKWing Stadium in the Serie A.

Stress levels are on the rise for Atalanta's attacking players as they have now played 191 minutes without scoring in a league game. A. Miranchuk was their last goal scorer.

A good away victory last time out for Atalanta, who won 1-0 against Ajax. Before that, Atalanta drew at home versus Midtjylland.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of G. Gasperini when Luis Muriel scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 79th minute.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Atalanta matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, zero draws and zero defeats (from two games).

Atalanta are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at Juventus awaits in three days.

A decent goal production from Atalanta in their home games so far, with 7 goals from 4 league matches. Atalanta have conceded 8 goals in these home games, a significant number.

Fiorentina form and stats

0 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Fiorentina playing as the away team in the Serie A this season.

Fiorentina delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Genoa (placed 19th) in their previous match; a Serie A game. Prior to that match, the Fiorentina manager C. Prandelli faced defeat when travelling to Milan and losing 0-2.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Fiorentina playing away, we found four games. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and four home wins.

A new game in only three days for Fiorentina, the Serie A home match versus Sassuolo. Busy days.

Fiorentina find the net regularly in their away games. 5 goals from 5 away fixtures in the league. For Fiorentina, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Atalanta won three games, five matches ended with a draw and Fiorentina has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
