Gaffer Roberto D’Aversa must find ways to reshape his set-up and approach to turn their form around quickly if they’re to retain their Serie A credentials for next season. He’ll have to do this with an extensive injury list.
The missing players include Tyronne Ebuehi, Nicolas Haas, Saba Sazonov, and Pietro Pellegri for cruciate ligament concerns. Ola Solbakken has a shoulder injury, and Jacopo Fazzini is suffering from a muscle issue. Ardian Ismajli and Tino Anjorin have thigh problems, and Mattia Viti’s situation remains unknown.
Our football predictions believe Empoli will be at a disadvantage in their bid to return to winning ways against Atalanta on Sunday.
Empoli Predicted Lineup vs Atalanta (3-5-2): Silvestri; Cacace, Goglichidze, De Sciglio; Pezzella, Henderson, Maleh, Grassi, Gyasi; Kouame, Colombo.
Atalanta Team News
Previously thought of as title contenders, Atalanta’s form has suffered a slight dip recently. With 16 wins, 6 draws, and 3 defeats in 25 outings this season, the club have accumulated 51 points and sit 3rd on the table. This puts them five points off the top, three behind second place, and five ahead of fourth place.
In their previous five games, they only won just twice, drew twice, and lost once, a clear drop off from their fine form. They were held to a 0-0 draw at home to Cagliari in Serie A. This dip has also seen them eliminated from the Champions League 5-2 on aggregate by Club Brugge.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s bid to return his charges to consistent form will be tested by the injury absentees. Odilon Kossounou and Isak Hien have adductor issues. Gianluca Scamaca has hurt his hamstring, Daniel Maldini is having muscular problems, and Giorgio Scalvini is suffering from a hurt shoulder.
Football bet predictions on 22Bet forsee Atalanta raring to recapture their form and retain their top-four status in Serie A.
