Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Pisa, 19th position with 13 points and a negative goal difference of -15
Atalanta, 7th position with 31 points and a positive goal difference of +6

Atalanta’s Coach Raffaele Palladino addressed the media ahead of the Serie A Week 21 match between Pisa and Atalanta, scheduled for Friday, January 16, at 20:45 CET, taking place at the Cetilar Arena in Pisa.

Palladino shared his thoughts: “We’re up against a side that plays at pace and goes vertical, one that has troubled even the big teams. We know Pisa’s style of play: in a match like this, even the smallest details can make all the difference, so we need to stay switched on throughout”.

Evaluating the team’s ongoing performance, coach Palladino remarked: “We’re in a good patch and we need to ride the momentum: over the next two months, we have to go all out, I’ll be asking the lads to push hard. I’ve also told the team that the aim is to better the 28 points from the first half of the season, and with 54 points still up for grabs, we have to be ambitious and chase as many as we can. Credit to the lads for their great work, but nothing’s done yet: the job’s far from over”.
