How many matches between Atalanta and Salernitana have previously been played thus far?
14

Sunday’s fixture will mark the 15th official match in all competitions (considering Serie A, Serie B and Coppa Italia alike) between Atalanta and Salernitana. With the Nerazzurri never coming off worse once before: out of the 14 prior matches against the Garnets, the scales are tipped in Atalanta’s favour on the strength of 6 victories and 8 draws.

In which stadium did Éderson score his latest Serie A goal?
Gewiss Stadium

Before landing in Bergamo, Éderson made his debut in the Serie A defending Salernitana’s colours, making 15 appearances and scoring 2 goals. While he scored his first at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium in Genova against Sampdoria, he slotted his second and last so far in at the Gewiss Stadium, against Atalanta. Moreover, provided that in all three most recent encounters between Atalanta and Salernitana the Campanian side managed to score not even once, Éderson’s goal counts as Salernitana’s first and only one scored against Atalanta in Serie A. While waiting for his first as a Nerazzurro player, you can find the photo reel of that match down below.

Once

Which current Atalanta player made the most appearances during their loan spell for Salernitana?
Zortea

Although Matteo Ruggeri made 15 appearances, out of which 14 have been in Serie A, in his loan spell for Salernitana last season, Nadir Zortea holds the primacy in this particular contest on the grounds of his 29 appearances, one of which was in the Coppa Italia, for Salernitana scoring also one goal.

How many times have Gasperini and Nicola crossed paths in Serie A?
