Atalanta, Recent FormAtalanta will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-1 win in their away outing against Torino. During that encounter they had 38% possession and had 9 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 4 shots on goal.
Manager Gian Piero Gasperini will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 11 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 7 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but playing at home, they have conceded a goal in 12 of their 15 games this season.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Spezia, Recent FormThe 2-0 home defeat to Monza will not have sat easily with the Spezia squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Monza who had 8 attempts and 4 on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Leonardo Semplici where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table, although he will still have one eye on his defence which have shipped 9 in the same period. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded at least one goal in 14 of their 15 games on the road.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 6 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
With 6 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, M'Bala Nzola has given the travelling Spezia support something to shout about on the road.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 2-2 draw.
In their previous 4 encounters with Atalanta, Spezia have shipped at least one goal in those matches. La Dea have an impressive record of scoring goals against Spezia, with a tally of 13 goals against them in their previous 5 encounters.
Spezia has a poor track record in the league when they visit Atalanta, losing in their last 2 games.
Mario Pašalić is on a hot scoring streak against Spezia, having scored in each of Atalanta's last 4 meetings with them.
Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Hans Hateboer (Cruciate ligament), Ademola Lookman (Hamstring), Matteo Ruggeri (Hamstring) and Lukáš Vorlický (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Spezia manager Leonardo Semplici with Daniel Maldini (Muscle), João Moutinho (Unknown), M'Bala Nzola (Muscle), Petar Zovko (Muscle) and Szymon Żurkowski (Muscle) all unavailable for selection, and Emil Holm (Groin) out for the rest of the season.
