The Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Lazio lock horns with Gian Piero Gasperini's Atalanta side in an important clash at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday.
Lazio vs Atalanta Preview
Lazio are currently in fourth place in the Serie A standings and have recovered from a relatively slow start to their league campaign. The Biancocelesti were held to a 1-1 draw by Hellas Verona in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
Atalanta, on the other hand, are in fifth place in the league table at the moment and have been fairly inconsistent this season. The away side slumped to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Sassuolo last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
