ROME — Atalanta has come from behind to beat Salernitana 2-1 in Serie A and improve its chances of an automatic Champions League place next season. The Bergamo-based club conceded after 18 minutes but struck back in the second half through Gianluca Scamacca and Teun Koopmeiners on Monday. Atalanta has risen into fifth, above Roma on goal difference. Salernitana will be relegated. Udinese's hopes of avoiding the drop impoved after draw with Napoli 1-1 at home. A late goal from Isaac Success saved a point for Udinese after it went behind to a Victor Osimhen goal.
