Bournemouth host Atalanta at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday in a friendly. This is the first time the two teams have met, and they both want to take advantage of this opportunity to improve their form before the new season starts.
Bournemouth come into this game having lost 1-0 to Everton in their last league outing. A second-half goal from Malian midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure gave Everton the win. Bournemouth were ranked 15th in the Premier League final table last season, just a few points clear of the relegation zone.
Bournemouth have appointed Andoni Iraola as their new manager after the success of Gary O’Neil last season, who helped the club stay in the Premier League. Iraola is considered a promising young manager, having put in an exciting job at Rayo Vallecano, and he will be responsible for overseeing Bournemouth’s development this season.
They have signed Hungarian left-back Milos Kerkez and Dutch winger Justin Kluivert. Kerkez is considered an exciting young talent, and Bournemouth have already managed to secure the 19-year-old’s signature. Kluivert is also a player with huge potential, and he will be competing with David Brooks and Arnaut Danjuma for a place on the wing.
Bournemouth have several players who could pose a threat to Atalanta, such as Danish midfielder Philip Billing, who recorded eight goals and assists last season, and striker Dominic Solanke, who scored 13 goals and assists. They also have young striker Sam Surridge, who has impressed in the previous friendlies.
On the other hand, Atalanta won 5-2 over Monza in their last league game. A hat trick from Dutch midfielder Teun Koopmeiners and goals from Danish striker Rasmus Hojlund and Colombia striker Luis Muriel sealed victory for Atalanta. Goals from midfielder Andrea Colpani and striker Andrea Petagna provided little consolation for Monza, who was reduced to 10 men after Brazil centre-back Marlon was sent off.
Atalanta are one of two Italian teams to qualify for next season’s Europa League, having finished 5th in the final Serie A table last term. They are known as a team that has an attractive and attacking style of play, with many quality players up front.
Atalanta are currently involved in the Rasmus Hojlund transfer saga. The 20-year-old is regarded as one of the best young strikers in Europe, and has been linked with Manchester United, with Paris Saint-Germain also interested. Both clubs are reported to have made bids for the Danish forward, but it remains to be seen whether they match Atalanta’s valuation. Atalanta are reported to have found a replacement already, with Almeria forward El Bilal Toure linked with the Serie A side.
Atalanta have many weapons that can threaten Bournemouth, such as Nigeria striker Ademola Lookman, who scored 19 goals and assists last season, and Dutch midfielder Teun Koopmeiners, who has 14 goals and assists. They also have Colombia striker Luis Muriel, who was the second top scorer in Serie A last season with 22 goals.
