Fiorentina will face Atalanta in a match which, according to forecasts, will take place with the two teams in 4-2-3-1 formats. Coach Paolo Vanoli will have to manage a growing infirmary, as the Florentine team will lose the presence of Pongracic and will have to evaluate Ranieri's availability. Meanwhile, the central defender role next to Dragusin will be occupied by Viery, while the goalkeeper will be entrusted to De Gea. On the right, Jiménez is confirmed, while on the left the choice is still under discussion between Valdepenas, who suffered an injury at the San Siro, and Dodo.
In midfield, Fiorentina could make a revolution: Oulai and Gonçalves, who remained on the bench in Milan, could both be starters. The Portuguese would take on the role of attacking midfielder, while the Ivorian would allow Ndour to replace him, with Fagioli confirmed as playmaker. For the external flanks, Gnonto should replace Gianni Njie, while Mastantuono remains untouchable on the right. In attack, Beto, who had a bad start against Inter, could be replaced by Pellegrino, who has proven ready to take Gianni's place.
Atalanta, on the other hand, is looking for a concrete turning point and their first points away from home after three defeats in three away games. Coach Gian Piero Sarri seems to opt for a 4‑2‑3‑1, with Carnesecchi in goal. The defense will be made up of Obric and Kristensen in the centre, while Zappacosta will replace Bellanova on the flanks, with Bernasconi confirmed on the left. In midfield, Ederson remains on the pitch, while Pasalic will replace Gaetano. In attack, Elmas and De Ketelaere are confirmed, with a possible run-off between Rowe and Zalewski. Krstovic is favored for the top position, with Scamacca as an alternative.
The two teams are preparing for a match that could decide their position in the standings. Fiorentina, in a difficult phase, tries to consolidate its defense and find an offensive balance, while Atalanta aims to regain confidence and obtain the points necessary to improve their position in the championship. The final result remains uncertain, but attention will certainly be paid to the tactical choices of the two coaches and the performances of the key players.
