Fiorentina vs Atalanta Prediction
Fiorentina endured a quiet transfer window this summer, managing to keep hold of Argentine attacker Nicolas Gonzalez despite interest from Brentford. They did let go of midfielder Sofyan Amrabat to Manchester United, and the Morocco international was a pivotal part of the midfield for the club last season.
They are currently eighth in the league, having won one, drawn one and lost one. Their most expensive signing was Argentine forward Lucas Beltran for €12 million, while Angolan striker M'Bala Nzola, who scored 13 goals in the league last season for Spezia, has also joined the club.
Atalanta, on the other hand, are fifth in the league and have won two of their first three league games. They continue to be a well-run club, having sold Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund to Manchester United for an eye-watering fee of €70 million and have invested that money smartly.
They spent a combined fee of €53 million on attackers El Bilal Toure and Gianluca Scamacca while attacking midfielder Charles De Ketelaere has joined on a loan deal after a disappointing spell at AC Milan. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini is known for his ability to get the best out of his attackers, and Toure and Scamacca could be next in line.
A close game is on the cards, and a draw seems likely.
