Atalanta vs Fiorentina

Atalanta have won the first seasonal home match for at least two Serie A championships in a row for the first time since the period between September 2006 and August 2009 (three in that case) - today's success against Fiorentina and against Monza (3- 0) last season.

Mateo Retegui is the 3rd player in the three points for a win era (since 1994/95) to score at least four goals in his first four games with Atalanta in SerieA after Franck Kessie in 2016 and Filippo Inzaghi in 1996.

Mateo Retegui is the player who has scored the most headed goals (three) in the Big-five European championships underway; more generally, no player has scored more goals than Mateo Retegui (four) in Serie A this season – four goals scored also for Marcus Thuram.

Fiorentina won both matches against Atalanta last season (both 3-2); the Viola have not enjoyed more consecutive victories against the Dea in Serie A since 2016 (eight).

There is a perfect balance across the last nine matches between Atalanta and Fiorentina at Bergamo in Serie A: three wins each and three draws (success for the Viola in the most recent one on 2 June).

Atalanta have lost three of their last four league games (W1), as many as in their previous 20 (W13 D4), including their last two; Atalanta have not endured three defeats in a row in Serie A since November 2022.

After the win against Lecce and the two defeats against Torino and Inter, Atalanta could lose three of their first four Serie A games of the season for only the second time in the Gasperini era, after 2016/17 (Gasperini’s first championship at the helm of the Dea).

Fiorentina have drawn each of their first five games of the season in all competitions for the first time in their history. More specifically, the Viola have drawn all their first three games of the season in Serie A for the second time, after 1936/37, and have never drawn four out of four in the top-flight.
