Match Analysis

Fiorentina has shown a mixed bag of results in their last three fixtures. They enjoyed a commanding 3-0 victory against Juventus at home and a narrow 1-0 win over Lecce, yet suffered a 2-1 defeat to Napoli away. Their recent form suggests resilience at home, with two clean sheets and an average of 1.8 goals scored over the last five games. However, their expected goals metric is notably lower at 0.826, indicating a potential struggle to consistently create clear-cut chances. Atalanta, on the other hand, has displayed formidable form, especially in their 4-0 away demolition of Juventus. Despite a goalless draw with Venezia and a 2-0 loss to league leaders Inter, their offensive prowess is undeniable, averaging 3.2 goals in their last five matches. Impressively, they have registered four clean sheets in this period, showcasing defensive solidity. Their expected goals are significantly higher at 1.976, reflecting their ability to create numerous scoring opportunities.

Final Prediction

Atalanta's edge over Fiorentina stems from their superior goal-scoring form and defensive robustness, as evidenced by their recent performances and advanced metrics. One key factor to watch in this encounter is Atalanta's ability to capitalize on their chances, given their high expected goals rate, which could prove decisive in securing all three points.
