If they want any shot at the top four, the results - especially the three points that come with wins - will have to follow suit and happen on a regular basis.Īnd by “regular basis,” it’s pretty much win every single game possible and hope that those in front of Juventus - namely Atalanta - slip up a few times along the way.

That’s just how it works these days, folks. But, the thing is, it all comes back to Atalanta seeing as La Dea won an absolutely wild one Saturday night against Napoli and extended the gap between Juventus (and Fiorentina before Sunday’s lunchtime kickoff) to 10 points even before the midway point of the season arrives later this month.Įven if Atalanta didn’t record a comeback win over Napoli 24 hours earlier, this would still be a must-win situation for Max Allegri and Co. Genoa, currently in the relegation zone just like Juve’s midweek opponent over in Salerno, are far from the kind of opposition that Atalanta is. Sure, the opposition tonight is one of the statistically worst teams in Serie A rather than one of the best and most explosive sides in Italy’s top flight.
