Napoli vs Atalanta Match Preview

Atalanta have bagged lots of goals away from home this season – and will be relying on that potency to boost their hopes of Champions League qualification when they visit Napoli.

The stats above reveal just how prolific the team from Bergamo have been on their travels, comfortably outscoring even Juventus who will probably have been confirmed as champions for an eighth straight year 48 hours before this game kicks off.

An exciting race for the top four in Serie A has closed up again with Juventus, Napoli and probably Inter Milan to be joined by one more club from the next six in the table, who are separated by only seven points.

But while Atalanta are right in the thick of the battle, their prospects have not been helped by goalless draws in their last two games – especially at home to relegation-threatened Empoli last time out.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s side need to get back among the goals away to a Napoli side who are again set to finish second to Juventus and if they have failed to overturn their Europa League quarter-final against Arsenal (result not known at the time of writing) will have very little to play for over the closing five weeks of the campaign.

Nevertheless, Napoli still need points to be sure of fending off Inter for the runner’s-up berth and we will back them to win what should be an entertaining contest.
