Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Fiorentina, 10th position with 3 points and a negative goal difference of -1
Atalanta, 9th position with 4 points and a positive goal difference of +1

Atalanta succumbing to the pressure failing to win the Serie A Week 3 game against Fiorentina on Saturday 11 September 2021 at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo, Italy.  Fiorentina win this away game reaching 6 points while Atalanta remain with 4 points.  This defeat is a blow for Atalanta ahead of their Champions League game next week.

  • Stats before the game.  Atalanta have won 30 of the 116 games played against Fiorentina in Serie A (37 draws 49 lost): only against Lazio and Bologna (36), the Bergamo players have won more successes.  Atalanta have won their last three Serie A games against Fiorentina; Atalanta have never reached four wins in a row against Fiorentina (three also in 1942).  Atalanta have won two of their last three home games against Fiorentina (1N), achieving as many successes as in the previous 11 home games with the Viola (4N, 5P). This could only become the third Serie A game in which Gian Piero Gasperini has not lost any of his first three games of the season, after last season with Atalanta and 2009/10 with Genoa (three wins in both cases). Also considering the last matchday of last season, Atalanta have failed to score in two consecutive Serie A home matches for the first time since October 2018 (three on that occasion).

Fiorentina opening the score in the 33rd minute. Dusan Vlahovic converting a penalty defeating Atalanta goalkeeper Sportiello with a left footed shot. The penalty is conceded by Joakim Maehle after a handball inside the penalty area.

It’s a magic Saturday for Dušan Vlahović being the absolute protagonist converting a second penalty for Fiorentina in the 49th minute.


Atalanta shortening the distance in the 65th minute. Colombian forward Duván Zapata converting a penalty with a right footed shot. The penalty is conceded by José Callejón after a foul on Robin Gosens.
