Ahead of Atalanta-Spal, matchday 20 of the Serie A TIM 2019/20, here are the standout facts about the match. Federico La Penna from Rome will take charge of the match. Imperiale and Villa will both assist La Penna, while Sozza will be the fourth official. VAR operators: Doveri and Ranghetti.
Atalanta have won their last two Serie A TIM games against SPAL – they have never won three consecutive top-flight games against them.
Atalanta won 5-0 in each of their last two home league games, only in 1952 had they previously managed to win two consecutive Serie A TIM home games by a 5+ goal margin - they have never done so in three successive games. The only team to enjoy a longer such streak in Serie A TIM was Torino in 1948 (four matches in that case).
SPAL striker Andrea Petagna has found the net in each of his three Serie A TIM games against Atalanta (4 goals), his joint-most against a single side in the Italian top-flight – he has played 63 Serie A TIM games for the Bergamaschi, scoring nine goals.
