Team News

  • Cazzola should replace Cigarini, who is suspended, in the middle of the pitch.
  • As Stendardo will also be unavailable, Manfredini is set to partner Lucchini as centre-back.
  • Gabbiadini may be in contention with Maxi Moralez to partner Denis up front.
  • There has been bad news for Fiorentina as Amauri will miss the rest of the season due to an injury.
  • Vargas and Montolivo are also unavailable, so Delio Rossi will miss some key players from his typical line-up.
  • Ljajic will partner Jovetic in attack, while Neto is set to defend the Viola's goal.

Prediction

  • Atalanta are pretty safe in 11th position but may want to take an extra point here and keep any threat of relegation at bay.
  • Fiorentina are on an impressive run of 8 points taken from the likes of Milan, Palermo, Inter and Roma, with 2 away victories.
  • Expect the hosts to try to control the match, while Fiorentina could leave ball possession in their opponents' hands and counter-attack if given a chance. The Viola have managed to escape the relegation fight for a while, but collecting at least one point here is mandatory to keep ahead of their rivals.
