The match was scheduled to kick off at 3 p.m. local time but was initially delayed pending another pitch inspection half an hour later.
However, after a second check with the referee and the captains of both teams, it was decided to postpone the match.
The postponement could be a blessing in disguise for Atalanta, several of whose key players have been showing signs of fatigue for a few weeks.
No new date has been announced but, with Atalanta involved in the Champions League and two midweek Serie A rounds coming up before the winter break, the earliest the match could be played is January.
