Atalanta will strive to get some consistency to their campaign as they welcome Salernitana in their Serie A fixture. This matchday 16 will be played at the Gewiss Stadium on Monday with the hosts 8th on 23 points and the visitors bottom at 20th spot with eight points. Atalanta are only two points behind top-four but need to find some consistent form to challenge for Champions League qualification spots. The hosts edged out AC Milan 3-2 in their last league game which ended a four-game winless run where they lost three and drew one. They are still one of the attractive sides of the division with 24 goals to their name. Their home form is slightly better than their overall recent record with four wins and two losses across seven games.

Salernitana start the round rooted to the bottom of points tally with four points behind safety zone. They look destined for Serie B unless results improve immediately. Four of their eight points have come across their last four league games which could be considered as improvement, but they lost their last two matches in a row. The visitors are also the worst defensive side of the division with 30 goals conceded, while scoring only 11 themselves – which is the second-worst scoring record. Little wonder then that Salernitana have lost five of their last six away league games.
