Here’s a new episode of Trivia Tuesday, the five Nerazzurri-themed questions to test our fans’ knowledge in partnership with GM-Termoidraulica, Atalanta Silver Partner. Serie A TIM will resume on Sunday 21 June and the Nerazzurri will restart from Matchday 25 against Sassuolo. Is there a better way to approach the match at the Gewiss Stadium than making 5 questions about the clashes against the Neroverdi?

1) Which of our forwards has scored the most against Sassuolo?

Papu Gomez

Our captain is the Atalanta player who has scored the most against the Neroverdi: 5 goals for Atalanta and 1, which dates back to the third round of the 2012/2013 Coppa Italia campaign, for Catania.

2) How many goals have Atalanta scored against Sassuolo?

35

31 goals in Serie A, 4 in the Coppa Italia, whereas Sassuolo have scored 14 against the Nerazzurri.

3) Who among these players made his seasonal debut in the away match?

Marco Sportiello

After his stay in Florence and Frosinone, Marco Sportiello returned to Atalanta at the beginning of the 2019/2020 season and made his second debut in Reggio Emilia. Besides him, the other player who also made his first appearance in Serie A in the reverse match was Musa Barrow, who came on with fifteen minutes left.

4) Which was the result of the last Atalanta-Sassuolo match?

3-1

It was an unforgettable match, as it gave Atalanta their first ever UEFA Champions League qualification. The match was played in Reggio Emilia due to the start of the renovation works at the Gewiss Stadium: it was the 26th of May 2019 and Atalanta defeat 3-1 Sassuolo thanks to Zapata, Papu and Pašalić.

5) Who scored the last goal in the away match?

Duván Zapata

Atalanta put the game to bed in just 35 minutes: 4 goals by Papu Gomez (brace), Gosens and Duván, who picked up Hateboer’s wonderful cross from the right and scored a header.
