Atalanta Team News
Atalanta suffered a third defeat in their last four Serie A games, losing 2-0 against league leaders Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium on Saturday. This defeat further distanced the team from Bergamo from the first four places in the table, which lead to the Champions League next season.
With 42 points, they are currently sixth in the table. Only six points separate them from fourth position, but big problem is their very poor form in recent weeks. The biggest problem for Gasperini’s team was the attack. They scored only one goal in the previous four matches.
Empoli Team News
On the other hand, the situation is no better for Empoli. They were defeated by Udinese 1-0 in front of their fans in the last round, thus registering their third defeat in a row. Empoli has not achieved a triumph in the last seven competitive matches since the match in Milan when they made a big surprise by defeating Inter 1-0.
With such a series of bad results, Paolo Zanetti’s team is in 14th place in Serie A after 26 rounds played. So now they are only a few points away from the danger zone, and until recently they were in the comfort zone in the central part of the table. That’s why the next duel in Bergamo can be extremely important for Empoli.
