If Atalanta can continue like this, they may not qualify for the Champions League next season. The point gap between them, Bologna, and Juventus is just two points. If they fail to win their next match and Bologna is able to win, Bologna will be ahead of Atalanta and probably even Juventus will be above them.I don't know what is wrong with Atalanta recently. They've lost three matches in a row, and that is really bad for them at this point in the season. Before those losses, I was thinking that maybe if Inter Milan messed up, Atalanta could seize the opportunity from Napoli. But now, I don't think they can do anything to climb up the table even if Inter Milan messes up again.All Atalanta needs to focus on now is qualifying for next season's Champions League, because their chances have seriously reduce.
I was thinking the same thing, when Inter Milan played a draw with Parma, I thought Atalanta may take advantage of the opportunity to close the points gap with Inter Milan. Since Atalanta got eliminated from the Champions League, they dropped form and have lost three games in a row, losing against Inter Milan, Fiorentina, and now Lazio, they failed to learn from their mistakes and return to their winning ways.
However, in the game against Lazio, if Atalanta did not win, I wasn't expecting them to lose because Lazio has never been in good form recently, but they delivered surprise results to defeat Atalanta by a narrow win. I am still surprised by Atalanta's performance this season, they were once at the top of the league, but they are currently battling to remain among the top four clubs. Bologna will overtake them if they defeat Napoli today.
