Fiorentina vs Atalanta Prediction

The Viola are the runners-up from the previous edition of the competition and their wins in the two games in the competition this season have both been registered on penalties. They are winless in their last three home games, with two games ending in draws.

They are unbeaten at home in Coppa Italia against the visitors and are strong favorites. Oliver Christensen is the only absentee for head coach Vincenzo Italiano, who might make a few changes to the starting XI after the loss to AC Milan on Saturday.

La Dea head into the match on a four-game unbeaten run, recording two wins on the trot.

Gian Piero Gasperini will be without the services of Giorgio Scalvini, as the defender was injured in the match against Napoli, while Charles De Ketelaere is a doubt. Teun Koopmeiners shrugged off a knock and scored after coming on as a second-half substitute.

Considering the current form of the two teams and the visitors' better goalscoring record, Atalanta are expected to eke out a narrow win.

Prediction: Fiorentina 1-2 Atalanta
