The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Gian Piero Gasperini's Atalanta lock horns with an impressive Napoli outfit at the Gewiss Stadium on Saturday.
Atalanta vs Napoli Preview
Napoli are currently at the top of the Serie A standings and have been in exceptional form this season. The Neapolitan outfit slumped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Atalanta, on the other hand, are in second place in the league table at the moment and have stepped up to the plate this season. La Dea eased past Empoli by a 2-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.
