Gian Piero Gasperini spoke at a press conference ahead of Atalanta’s first home match of 2023 as Salernitana visit the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo. The 2022-2023 Serie A TIM matchday 18 fixture is scheduled for Sunday 15 January at 18:00 CET: “We want to return to winning ways at home, but we know it is never easy. Our position in the standings is good, but we can still work on it: at this stage in the season, with two games to go, the league table does not lie”.

Then he moved on to tomorrow’s opponent: “Salernitana’s performances in the second half of the league last season allowed them to achieve something extraordinary, securing Serie A safety. They are continuing in that direction and are in a better situation this year, so it will certainly be a tough and challenging match”.
