Fiorentina vs Atalanta

In this meeting we will analyze the challenge valid for the round of 16 of the Italian Cup between Fiorentina and Atalanta. Hosts who find the championship win after a long time. Guests returning from the important draw of San Siro against Inter.

Breath of oxygen for Fiorentina who after months savor the three points by beating the Spal taillight at home, amid various sufferings. And the Italian Cup is a good opportunity for Iachini to study some alternative solutions. The hand of Iachini is not yet seen, who with Canon 3-5-2 still makes a lot, a lot of effort to find the way of the net and build game. It is no coincidence that the last goal of an attacker, Vlahovic, dates back to four games ago (1-1 against Inter). Here, more than the opportunity to go and win a trophy, the Cup comes as a showcase to find some alternative solutions. Monza and Cittadella have so far not been too convincing opponents.

Atalanta managed instead to stop Inter in that of San Siro, perhaps even deserving something more and confirming itself as one of the most beautiful realities of our league. The Goddess instead comes into play now. Gasperini will certainly give space to those who have found the field less so far but without exaggerating, given that the Nerazzurri will at least want to repeat the final won last season. The Nerazzurri, with the exception of a few stumbling blocks, in the last period have shown themselves to be much better in shape, risking the blow against Inter and having won the last two games with a huge amount of poker.

Previous: balanced the score of the last seasons. Last year the challenge was worth a place in the final, and after the 3-3 in Florence the Bergamo players won 2-1 at home.

Atalanta favored to conquer the quarterfinals, but this match could extend beyond the regular time. Match that promises goals, with guests holding the best attack in the league and guests grappling with the defensive phase to be recorded.

Our Prediction: Over 2.5

Odds: 1.65
