👉 Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Empoli, 18th position with 21 points and a negative goal difference of -16
Atalanta, 3rd position with 51 points and a positive goal difference of +28

Atalanta won the Serie A Week 26 on Sunday, February 23, 2025, at the Carlo Castellani Stadium in Empoli.  Atalanta delivered an impressive performance, dominating Empoli with a resounding 5-0 victory. This win is a significant boost for Atalanta as they re-establish themselves as serious contenders for the Scudetto. With this triumph, they now have 54 points, just three behind league leaders Inter at 57 and Napoli at 56.

Unfortunately for Empoli, they remain in a tough spot, sitting in third-to-last place with only 21 points. It was a goal-fest for Atalanta! They netted five times, while Empoli, who showed some promise in the first half, faltered after Gyasi’s own goal. Mateo Retegui continued his scoring streak, becoming the league’s top scorer with 21 goals. Ademola Lookman contributed with two goals, and Davide Zappacosta capped off the match with the fifth goal.

Empoli has struggled against Atalanta, losing their last five encounters in Serie A. They also have a longer streak of consecutive defeats against no other team, having lost five times to Inter, whom they have already played twice this season.

Nigerian forwaard Ademola Lookman shone brightly in Atalanta’s 5-0 triumph over Empoli, scoring two goals and securing the official MVP title for the Serie A Man of the Match.

What an exciting moment for Atalanta! They took the lead in the 27th minute when Emmanuel Gyasi accidentally scored an own goal. Zappacosta delivered a cross from the left, and Gyasi inadvertently redirected the ball, surprising goalkeeper Silvestri as it went in just under the crossbar.

Empoli is feeling the pressure! In the 33rd minute, Atalanta extended their advantage. Forward Mateo Retegui found the net from just a few feet away with a right-footed shot straight down the middle. The setup came from Berat Djimsiti after a corner that goalkeeper Marco Silvestri had to concede. Lookman delivered a cross from the left, Djimsiti headed it, and Retegui finished it off right in front of the goal.

It’s a celebration for Atalanta at the Castellani! In the 43rd minute, Ademola Lookman found the back of the net with a close-range right-footed shot. After a clever pass from Retegui, Lookman skillfully maneuvered past Silvestri and scored. Empoli must be feeling the pressure now. Empoli 0 – 3 Atalanta!

It’s Party time!!! Ademola Lookman scored a brilliant goal in the 55th minute, sending a left-footed shot into the top right corner, with Marten de Roon providing the assist.

The struggles for Empoli persist! In the 74th minute, Davide Zappacosta found the net with a right-footed strike into the bottom left corner. Mario Pasalic provided the assist, setting up Zappacosta on the left. The winger made a clever feint, advanced to the edge of the box, and fired a low shot that slipped past Silvestri.

✅   Stats before the game:

In their last six home matches against Atalanta in Serie A, Empoli has managed only one win, suffering five losses. Over the past decade (since the 2015/16 season), they have only faced more home defeats against Inter, with seven losses. Currently, Empoli is dealing with three straight losses, failing to score in the last two matches. The last time they experienced four consecutive defeats or three straight losses without finding the net was between March and April 2024, when they lost four games without scoring.

Atalanta has gone 10 away matches in Serie A without a loss, boasting 7 wins and 3 draws. Under Gasperini’s management. They’ve only had one other instance of going more than 10 away games unbeaten in a single season.  It was during the first 12 away matches of the 2021/22 season, where they achieved 9 wins and 3 draws. If we look at a ranking for 2025 alone, Empoli would find themselves at the bottom with just two points, tied with Parma, and they have the weakest defense, having conceded 17 goals. Meanwhile, Atalanta sits in 10th place, sharing the same points total of 10 with Fiorentina.

The decline of Italian football in Champions League in 2025

👉 What are your thoughts on the decline of Italian football?

It’s disappointing to see Italian football not performing well in the spotlight. Five teams from Italy participated in the new 36-team Champions League format.  Incredible so, Bologna failed to advance past the group stage. AC Milan and Atalanta were eliminated at home by Feyenoord and Club Brugge, and Juventus was also sent packing by PSV Eindhoven. The lone survivor is Inter, who has made it to the Round of 16.
