However, they were dealt a huge blow, suffering a 3-1 defeat against Verona, failing to move up the league table.
As it happened
Ademola Lookman continued in attack for Atalanta following his newly found form that has seen him score in back-to-back games in the Serie A.
On the other hand, Gift Orban was left on the bench by Paolo Zanetti for the game as they look to recover from their disappointing performance in their last five games.
Rafik Belghali and Giovane shocked the in-form visitors, scoring both goals to put the home team in a comfortable lead before halftime.
Despite scoring in back-to-back games and also creating an assist, he failed to extend his scoring streak to three games in a row.

The home team killed every hope of a comeback from Atalanta in the game, with Antoine Bernede scoring the third goal for his team.
La Dea got a consolation goal in the 81st minute after they were rewarded a penalty, with Gianluca Scamacca converting from the penalty spot.
