Napoli gave a good start to the season with a win over Hellas Verona, coupled with advancing to the UEFA Champions League from the playoff wins over Nice but their real mettle will be tested when they take on Atalanta in the Italian Serie A clash scheduled for Sunday 27th August. Napoli will be the home team, and will be seeking to get a first win over Atalanta in three matches, the visitors having won the last two encounters. Napoli head to the game on a fine run; six matches unbeaten across all competitions, 12 unbeaten at home; 13 unbeaten in the league and just one loss in their last 15 home matches. They go into the clash on four straight wins and a draw in their last five matches and playing at home, they have also won four and drawn one, scoring 16 goals and conceding just two. Atalanta on the other hand, lost their league opener, falling to Roma, but they will be banking on their recent good form against Napoli to bag three points. Atalanta are unbeaten in their last six away matches and have suffered just one loss in their last 11 league matches. This will give them confidence heading to the match. In their past five matches, Atalanta have one loss, three wins and a draw. In their away matches, they have managed three straight wins and two draws, scoring six and conceding three goals in the process. Head to head, the two sides have met 35 times and Napoli have managed 12 wins while Atalanta have 11.
