Fiorentina vs Atalanta prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-03-29 13:00.
[p]Fiorentina return to Serie A action following the international break as one of a cluster of sides in the heat of a battle to secure a European place. La Viola start the round three points shy of the top six having thumped Juventus 3-0 last time out, and they will now hope to take another notable scalp against title-chasing Atalanta. [/p]
[p]Fiorentina can take heart from a strong H2H record, as only against Bologna (57) and Napoli (55) have they won more Serie A matches than against Atalanta (W53, D38, L32). They have won three of the last five meetings in all competitions (L2), but concern remains for boss Raffaele Palladino, as five of his side’s six Serie A fixtures against the sides beginning this weekend in the top four ended in defeat (W1).[/p]
[p]Atalanta travel to Florence having suffered a costly home defeat to leaders Inter Milan most recently (2-0) which ended a seven-game unbeaten league run (W4, D3). It also halted an impressive streak of five successive clean sheets, and while La Dea remain comfortably inside the top four, Gian Piero Gasperini’s men are at risk of being cut adrift from the top two. [/p]
[p]Atalanta’s impressive form on the road this term indicates that they can keep their fleeting Scudetto hopes alive. The visitors have accumulated more away points than any side in the division pre-round (33), winning each of their last four such matches while scoring 2+ goals in each, though only one came against top-half opposition (4-0 v Juventus).[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Fiorentina’s Robin Gosens could find the net in three successive Serie A home matches for the first time in four years here – both of his previous goals in the sequence came inside the opening 15 minutes. Atalanta’s Ademola Lookman has been involved in six goals in four Serie A games against Fiorentina (G4, A2), scoring in each of those four matches. [/p]
[p]Hot stat: Fiorentina have scored 75 goals in 40 games across all competitions this season at an average of 1.88 goals per game – their highest such figure since the 1960s. [/p]
