Atlanta
will welcome at home
Florence
The challenge of two teams in the
Serie A
The matchups on the field are always intense, and this game is no exception. As things stand, Atlanta has the edge in form and strength, and is expected to continue its recent winning streak.
Atalanta beat Torino 3-0 at home in the last round of league matches and achieved six consecutive victories, in which Scaramacca's consecutive goal performance is especially eye-catching. He not only scored again in the last round, but also scored in two consecutive rounds, showing excellent form. In addition, Atalanta's offense is full of firepower, and has scored 60 goals so far this season, which is one of the teams with the highest number of goals in Serie A.
Fiorentina's last league match was a 3-2 home win over Cagliari, but the team's performance was not stable. In the mid-week UEFA Europa League semi-final, Fiorentina lost 0-1 to Olympiacos on the road, and was runner-up for the second consecutive year, which undoubtedly brought a huge blow to the team. In addition, the team's injury situation is also relatively serious, Biraghi, Sottile and Mandragora and other key players' absence will have a considerable impact on the team's fighting strength.
In terms of head-to-head record, Atalanta's last 10 matches against Fiorentina have resulted in 4 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, which is a slight disadvantage. However, considering Atlanta's current form and home advantage, they are expected to turn the tide in this match. The Asian index has risen to -1.5, which also reflects the confidence of the organization in Atalanta.
In addition, Atlanta's performance this season is also worth mentioning. They won the UEFA Cup, which undoubtedly added confidence and motivation to the team. In the league, Atalanta is also doing well, currently ranking at the top of the table, and is expected to compete for the top four positions. Therefore, they will definitely go all out in this match to continue their winning streak.
With all these factors, Atlanta is favored to win at home in this match. In terms of score, considering the offense and defense of the two teams, the expected score may be 2-0 or 3-1. Of course, soccer matches are full of variables, and the final result will depend on the clinical performance and tactical arrangement of the two sides.
