Atalanta faces Napoli at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo in a match from the 13th round of the Serie A. Let’s see what we can tell you about it in these advanced football betting statistics and trends.
Atalanta shared the points with Udinese just before the International break – 1-1. Gian Piero Gasperini’s team was close to losing this one, but Ederson equalised in the 92th minute for La Dea. The Brazilian midfielder used an assist from Davide Zappacosta and put the ball in the net.
Gianluca Scamacca is Atalanta’s top scorer since the beginning of the season. So far he has scored five goals in the Serie A for Gasperini’s team. Meanwhile the experienced Colombian striker Luis Muriel is not having the best season – he’s still looking for his first goal. The 32-years old is a classy player, but so far things are not going perfect for him.
Napoli will travel to Bergamo with a new head coach. The club brought back its former manager Walter Mazzarri who replaced the sacked Rudi Garcia. The French tactician didn’t do very well at the job and Napoli are currently 4th in the standings with 21 points. Now Mazzarri will have the task to revive the team and make it play with its full capability.
Rudi Garcia’s sacking happened after the 0-1 loss at home against Empoli in the previous round. It was really disappointing to see the current champion perform like this at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. It’s not a surprise that Garcia got the sack after such a mediocre showdown. But can Walter Mazzarri revive the team now? Well, let’s see.
That’s the advanced football betting statistics and trends for the Serie A game between Atalanta and Napoli on Saturday. It’d be curious to see how Mazzarri’s second debut at the club will go.
