Fiorentina and Atalanta Set for Goal-Fest at Stadio Artemio Franchi
Key Stats
– Fiorentina have seen over 2.5 goals in each of their last five league outings.
– Atalanta are currently averaging two goals per Serie A match this season.
As Serie A action resumes post-international break, all eyes will be on Stadio Artemio Franchi where Fiorentina play host to Atalanta BC this Sunday. Coming off a crushing loss to Inter, Fiorentina are eager to outpace Atalanta in the league table and stay hot on the heels of the frontrunners.
Vincenzo Italiano’s Fiorentina have shown flashes of brilliance but have been plagued by inconsistencies. Since their victorious start to the league campaign, they have failed to register a win. The team’s offensive shortcomings were highlighted against Inter where they dominated possession but struggled to convert, managing only two shots on target in a 4-0 defeat.
Nevertheless, they shouldn’t be written off just yet. This time last season, they had secured a meagre five points from their opening five fixtures. Comparatively, the Viola are now sitting with four points after three games, showcasing signs of progress.

In Florence, the Tuscans had to settle for a draw against an in-form Lecce in their opening home game. They are set to embark on a European adventure with back-to-back away fixtures, starting with a journey to Belgium to face Genk. Sunday’s fixture, therefore, offers Fiorentina an essential opportunity to leave a lasting impression on their home fans before a series of away engagements.
The Recent Head-to-Head Record
Recent matchups between the two sides have slightly favoured Atalanta. In their last four encounters, La Dea have claimed two victories and suffered a single defeat. Fiorentina, on the other hand, have managed just three wins in the previous 14 head-to-head meetings.
The most recent clashes witnessed a slender win for Atalanta, courtesy of an Ademola Lookman strike, followed by a 1-1 stalemate in Florence. Historically, Atalanta’s away form against Fiorentina has dramatically improved in recent times, winning two of the last four, a stark contrast to their earlier record.
Atalanta’s Strong Start
Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta have had a robust start to their campaign. Directly entering the Europa League group stages after finishing fifth last season, they’ve managed to maintain a solid defence, registering two clean sheets in their first three outings. New signings Charles De Ketelaere and Gianluca Scamacca have found their goal-scoring touch, fueling hopes of a top-four finish.
Key Players and Injuries
Fiorentina’s injury woes continue with key players like Yerry Mina, Jonathan Ikone, and Gaetano Castrovilli sidelined. M’Bala Nzola, with an impressive goal-scoring record against Atalanta, is poised to lead the attack.
For Atalanta, El Bilal Toure remains unavailable. Gianluca Scamacca is expected to spearhead their offence, supported by the dynamic midfield duo of Teun Koopmeiners and Marten de Roon.
Predictions
- Match Outcome: Given the recent form and performances, a draw seems the most likely outcome. Both teams are showing signs of attacking prowess but are also susceptible at the back. The under/over market leans towards an over 2.5 goals game, especially considering Fiorentina’s recent high-scoring matches.
- Correct Score Prediction: With the attacking talent on display and the past encounters in mind, a 2-2 draw might be on the cards.
- Goalscorer Prediction: M’Bala Nzola has a notable record against Atalanta, making him a probable candidate to score for Fiorentina. For Atalanta, Gianluca Scamacca, having found the net recently, is likely to continue his good form.
Optional: First Goalscorer: Given Nzola’s track record against Atalanta, he might be the one to open the scoring.
