Strikes from Leao and Hernandez were enough to inflict a 10th loss of the season on La Dea, leaving them in 8th place on the table with 59 points.
The hosts need to get all three points in this one if they are to keep their hopes of playing some form of European football next season.
On the other hand, Empoli played out a 1-1 home draw against Salernitana in their previous clash last week.

Cutrone and Bonazzoli scored for either side to ensure a share of the spoils. This point left Empoli in 14th place with 38 points and they are set to finish their campaign closer to the relegation zone.
It’s been a difficult campaign for Empoli as they have managed just 9 wins and hope to get into double figures in terms of victories with a solid performance.
Both sides met earlier in October 2021 where Atalanta managed to win 4-1 away from home which was led by a brace from Ilicic.
