Atalanta are currently in eighth place, but are only three points behind sixth-placed AS Roma. Salernitana are in eighteenth relegation position but are three points behind seventeenth place and have two games to play.
The home team still holds out hope of further qualification for European competitions this year. If that were to happen, it would be the sixth qualification in a row. However, they cannot afford to lose points.
Atalanta have only one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five matches. Its opponent from the bottom of the table is better off. It has lost two of its last five games, but managed to win three times.
This will be an important game for Gian Piero Gasperini, who coaches Atalanta. He has played more than 450 competitive games during his career, but has managed to score only one career goal, and that came during his time with Salernitana, Atalanta’s opponents.
As Atalanta coach, Gasperini led his team against Salernitana twice. On both occasions, Atalanta came out as the winning team. In the autumn, they won 1:0 away.
Atalanta is not in good form at the moment, but matches against weaker teams must not be lost now, so we believe that they will come out victorious at their home stadium. However, it will not be a clear-cut result.
