The Naples is on stage in Bergamo, after the two victories against Verona and Udinese, with the aim of overcoming perhaps the highest obstacle on his calendar in the Scudetto race. Not an easy task for Spalletti’s team against Atalanta who, with the very painful victory in Bologna, stemmed the crisis of results and probably won another opportunity to try to get back into the race in fourth place (-8 from Juventus and one match to recover).
Statistics
The precedents of recent years have smiled on the Nerazzurri: Atalanta have won 4 of the last 6 league games against Napoli, including the last two in a row and have not achieved three consecutive victories against the Neapolitans since 1998. In addition, Atalanta has scored in 19 of the last 21 matches played against Napoli in Serie A. However, the moment is not the best for Gasp: after six victories in a row between November and December, then only 3 wins have arrived in the last 12 games. Napoli can boast a super external performance: 34 points in 15 away games, losing only one away game so far (against Inter on 21 November).
The latest on Atalanta
Gasperini without Toloi, Ilicic and the former Duvan but recovers Boga who should act in tandem with Malinovskyi, in front of Koopmeiners (in a runoff with Pessina), allowing Muriel to start off the bench after returning from the national team and represent a card for the recovery . In the median De Roon and Freuler with Hateboer (ahead of Pezzella) and Zappacosta on the sides while in defense there is no doubt about Djimsiti, Demiral and Palomino.
The latest on Napoli
Spalletti without Osimhen and Rrahmani disqualified as well as Di Lorenzo, Meret, Ounas and Petagna injured. Fabian recovers who is favored over Zielinski (in this case it would be 4-2-3-1) to be part of the trio with Lobotka and Anguissa while in attack Politano and Insigne larghi in support of Mertens. The other doubt concerns the right with Zanoli favored over Malcuit in the line with Koulibaly, Juan Jesus and Rui. With Tuanzebe instead it would be defense at 3.
