Serie A Preview: Napoli vs Atalanta

Serie A transfer roundup Godin, Kabak, Costa, Frabotta, Chiesa, Khedira

Napoli host Atalanta in the Italian League this weekend at this should be a cracking encounter.

Atalanta are at the top of the table right now after winning all three games and they have managed to score 13 goals in the process.

On the other hand Napoli have been solid at the back and they are yet to concede a single goal.

Napoli have won both of their games and they will be confident of getting a result as well.

The home side have scored eight goals in their two games so far and both teams have fantastic attackers at their disposal.

This should be an attacking contest between two sides who like to play aggressively. There should be a fair few goals in this one.

It will be interesting to see if Napoli can contain Atalanta’s free-flowing attacking football here. They have been very organized at the back but they will be tested thoroughly against the best attacking team in the country right now.
