Chievo continued with their low-scoring matches today against a high-flying Atalanta team who has surprised many this year.
There were chances for both sides but neither could break the deadlock and earn a win that would have seen them climb into the top half of the Serie A standings.
Chievo, looking to bounce back from last weekend's 4-0 defeat at AC Milan, had a pair of chances before the half-hour mark.
Sergio Pellissier got his head to Davide Moscardelli's cross and his five-yard effort went over the bar.
Shortly after, Pellissier wasted another great chance when he could not get his 12-yard effort on target as it sailed wide of the far post.
Chievo goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino finally made the first save of the match early in the second half, keeping out German Denis' right-footed volley from the edge of the area.
Pellissier should have broken the deadlock shortly after the hour mark but he headed Boukary Drame's cross just inches over the bar.
With 15 minutes remaining, Atalanta goalkeeper Andrea Consigli kept out Pellissier's powerful header as both teams settled for a point in Verona.
Next Sunday it's an away match against Udinese. Tough streak of games lately.
FORZA Chievo!!
