Atalanta is aiming for the top spot in Serie A as they face AC Milan on Friday, December 6, 2024, or Saturday, December 7, at 02:45 WIB at the Atleti Azzurri d’Italia Stadium. Atalanta is currently one point behind leaders Napoli and is looking to set a club record with a ninth consecutive win in Serie A. This match also represents a significant opportunity for Atalanta to become genuine title contenders for the first time in their history.
Under coach Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta has been in excellent form, winning 11 out of their last 12 games in all competitions since October. After their 2-0 victory over Roma, Gasperini commented that their success, including their historic Europa League win last season, has greatly contributed to the growth of the players.
If Atalanta defeats Milan, they will temporarily sit at the top of the league, at least for a couple of days, ahead of Napoli’s match against Lazio on Sunday, December 8.
Meanwhile, defending champions Inter Milan will begin their weekend match against Parma at San Siro. This will be their first game since last weekend’s match against Fiorentina was postponed due to the shocking collapse of Roma’s Edoardo Bove, who is still undergoing intensive care treatment. Fiorentina, who are also in the title race, will face Cagliari this weekend, trailing Atalanta by three points.
Atalanta will have another high-profile fixture next week when they host Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.
