Napoli-Atalanta is a match valid for the 11th day of Serie A and is played on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.: statistics, news, likely formations, prediction, live TV, streaming.
Antonio Conte’s Napoli also brilliantly passed the Milan exam, the first test of a certain level after four matches against teams whose goal is salvation (Monza, Como, Empoli and Lecce). The Azzurri in the midweek round at San Siro confirmed their cynical and surgical approach, directing the match with Lukaku after 5′ and doubling at the end of the first half with a beautiful goal by Kvaratskhelia (0-2).
Fifth consecutive win and fourth clean sheet in the last five days for a team that since last Tuesday also boasts the best defense in the tournament (5 goals conceded in 10 games). The Salento coach has officially succeeded in transforming a drained Napoli team coming off one of the worst seasons in the last two decades into a Scudetto “battleship,” which, although not always shining at the level of play, is extremely solid and makes its pragmatism one of its main strengths. The fact is that after the success with the Rossoneri, the partenopei have 25 points, 4 more than second-placed Inter and even 7 more than Juventus, which slipped to sixth place.
There is no time, however, to relax: a few days after the challenge with Milan, another big match arrives for Conte’s men, this time at the “Maradona” against Gian Piero Gasperini’s fearsome Atalanta. La Dea is also finding continuity in the league: in October, the Nerazzurri took advantage of the calendar, racking up 4 wins in a row (Genoa, Venezia, Verona, Monza) and hoisting themselves to third place, -2 from Inter and in cohabitation with Fiorentina and Lazio.
Napoli-Atalanta: the latest news on the lineups
Count’s main doubt concerns Lobotka: the Slovakian playmaker is now recovered but it is not certain that the Scot Gilmour, who has proven to be a very valid substitute, will play again with Dea. Otherwise, Napoli should take the field with the same lineup as in San Siro.
Even Gasperini, net of long-term absentees, can field the best lineup. In the three-quarter, however, Samardzic, in goal against Monza in the midweek round, can blow De Ketelaere’s place.

The Prediction
Napoli has prevailed four times in the last five previous matches. Last March, however, it was Atalanta who came out on top, taking advantage of the Azzurri’s annus horribilis (0-3 at the “Maradona”). Rarely, however, little has been scored between these teams (the Under 2.5 sign has occurred only once since 2020). The feeling is that we will witness a spectacular match this time as well, with Dea’s inspired attack – the most prolific with 26 goals scored – expected to be able to scratch Conte’s defense on at least one occasion.
The probable formations of Napoli-Atalanta
NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Buongiorno, Olivera; Zambo Anguissa, Gilmour, McTominay; Politano, Lukaku, Kvaratskhelia.
ATALANTA (3-4-2-1): Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac; Bellanova, de Roon, Ederson, Ruggeri; De Ketelaere, Lookman; Retegui.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-1
