Fiorentina and Atalanta met for the third time this season across competition and Fiorentina maintained their perfect record beating the team for the third time with Krzysztof Piatek’s winner. Ruslan Malinovskyi had almost got his hands on an equalizer but unfortunately, it was disallowed.
Fiorentina won both the times in Serie A and Coppa Italia, with Bartlomiej Dragowski making his first outing in Serie A since October. Other than that La Dea did not have Luis Muriel, Duvan Zapata, Aleksei Miranchuk, Josip Ilicic, and even Jose Luis Palomino on their side leaving Jeremie Boga as the only striker in the squad. Atalanta almost leveled up after Malinovskyi’s offside goal as well when Demiral nodded a Giuseppe Pezzella cross over the bar but unfortunately Malinovsyki went wide.
