Atalanta and Empoli will face each other this Friday, March 17 at 2:45 p.m. Game valid for matchday 27 of Serie A. Next, we present the preview and the recommended forecast for this match.
The team led by Gian Piero Gasperini arrives after losing against Napoli, while Empoli comes after losing against Udinese. A total of 14 points separate Atalanta from Empoli, with the Bergamo team in sixth place in the table, 8 positions behind Azurri, which is ranked 14th.
Atalanta tried to surprise the Calcio leaders during their visit last Saturday, but failed. Napoli pressed hard in the first half to keep the result level, but Atalanta couldn’t keep up in the second half and ended up going down 2-0.
At the moment, Atalanta is in sixth place in the standings with 42 points (12 wins, 6 draws, 8 losses), four points above Juventus. When they play at home. The Negriazules this season has obtained 5 victories in 12 games, with 4 losses.
For this reason, this Friday the Bergamo team has the obligation to impose its locality, where it only registers a defeat in their five official matches this 2023 (3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss).
Possible formation:
Juan Musso, Merih Demiral, José Palomino, Rafael Toloi, Joakim Mæhle, Giorgio Scalvini, Marten Roon, Davide Zappacosta, Éderson, Ademola Lookman and Rasmus Hojlund.
Those led by Paolo Zanetti continue to get complicated, and the previous day they lost at home against Udinese (0-1), to chain not only their third consecutive league defeat, but also record seven consecutive league games without winning (3 draws, 4 losses).
These results place Empoli in fourteenth place in the Calcio classification, with nine points ahead on relegation positions.
Empoli’s main problem is the irregularity away from homesince, it only registers a victory in their last nine games, all for Calcio, (1 win, 4 draws, 4 losses), and they face an Atalanta that registers two losses in their last three direct duels.
Possible training:
Samuele Perisan, Fabiano Parisi, Sebastiano Luperto, Ardian Ismajli, Petar Stojanovic, Filippo Bandinelli, Razvan Marin, Jean-Daniel Akpro, Tommaso Baldanzi, Martin Satriano and Francesco Caputo.
A great opportunity for Atalanta this weekend to rediscover victory against an Empoli team that is very irregular playing away from home, and against whom it has also recorded good results in its last direct duels.
