In a weekend match in week 26, on Sunday Feb 20th, Atalanta will travel to Firenze to battle Fiorentina in a clash of the Serie A.

In their last match, 8th placed Fiorentina, recorded a 2-1 win against Spezia. Krzysztof Piątek struck first for Fiorentina in the 42nd minute on a feed from Youssef Maleh, then Kevin Agudelo tied it up for Spezia in the 74th minute. Fiorentina should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 18 points in their last 10 matches, while atalanta is fresh off their 1-1 draw against Juventus. Ruslan Malinovskyi struck first for Atalanta in the 76th minute, then Danilo tied it up for Juventus in the 1st minute of the second half’s stoppage time on a feed from Paulo Dybala earning Juventus a comeback draw. Atalanta is looking for direction having earned 16 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match on Thu Feb 10th, Fiorentina was victorious by a score of 3 to 2. Krzysztof Piątek struck first for Fiorentina in the 9th minute from the penalty spot, then Davide Zappacosta tied it up for Atalanta in the 30th minute from the penalty spot , but luckily for Fiorentina it didn’t end there. They were able to keep scoring to earn the win.
José Luis Palomino and Jérémie Boga are the top scorers for Atalanta in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Fiorentina’s top weapon lately has been Krzysztof Piątek, who has three goals in the last five matches.
