Prediction: 2-1
Fiorentina
After failing to win the previous for Serie A games, Atalanta will look to move closer to the Champions League places when they face Fiorentina in Bergamo. Midfielder Emil Holm is pushing for a start after serving his one-game ban in a 2-2 draw with Juventus, whereas there are no fresh injury worries in the home team. A man to keep an eye on in Gian Piero Gasperini’s team will be Teun Koopmeiners, who scored a brace against the “Old Lady”.
The Viola, on the other hand, played out a 2-2 draw with AS Roma at the weekend. Even though Fiorentina are undefeated in the previous four league matches, home win should be considered as Vincenzo Italiano’s men have been struggling on the travels in 2024. Goalkeeper Oliver Christiansen remains on the sidelines with a meniscus injury, while forward Christian Kouame misses out through illness.
