Atalanta Seek to Extend Momentum Against Struggling Fiorentina
Bergamo, Italy – atalanta BC welcomes Fiorentina to the Gewiss Stadium on Sunday seeking to build on recent Champions League form while their opponents battle a deepening crisis in front of goal.

This Serie A clash pits an Atalanta side rediscovering attacking confidence against a Fiorentina team desperately needing a breakthrough. While Atalanta’s home record in 2025 has been inconsistent, winning only three of 17 matches, their recent performances in the champions League suggest a potential turning point.Fiorentina, meanwhile, faces mounting pressure as both Kean and Dzeko have failed to deliver expected goal returns sence their respective arrivals, raising concerns about their attacking capabilities.
Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini has several options for his attack, with gianluca Scamacca having recently found the net as a substitute. Lookman is expected to start, having been directly involved in six goals in five previous games against Fiorentina. Potential starters include Scamacca, Lookman, and De Ketelaere. Atalanta will be without Roberto Piccoli (ankle), Robin Gosens, Christian Kouame, Tariq Lamptey, and perhaps Dodo.
Fiorentina’s attack will likely feature Kean, despite scoring only twice this season after a 25-goal campaign in 2024-25, alongside Albert Gudmundsson. Veteran striker Edin Dzeko,who previously scored nine Serie A goals against Atalanta,has yet to score in the league since joining fiorentina in the summer.

Atalanta BC: Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac; Bellanova, De Roon, Ederson, Zalewski; De Ketelaere, Lookman; Scamacca
