With goals from Alfred Duncan and Nicolas Gonzalez, Fiorentina claimed seventh place and a Europa Conference League spot.
Atalanta lost at home to Empoli 1-0.
Fiorentina finished seventh and Atalanta eighth, ending the Bergamo squad's run of playing in Europe at five consecutive seasons - the last three in the Champions League, including a quarter-final appearance in 2020.
Fiorentina, which won the Cup Winners' Cup in 1961, had gone five seasons without playing in Europe.
Juventus had already secured a Champions League spot and a fourth-place finish.
In his final match with the club, Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini exited at halftime after getting bloodied during a collision with Krzysztof Piatek.
Chiellini is seeking a new club in Major League Soccer.
Also, Lazio and Hellas Verona drew 3-3 and Bologna beat already-relegated Genoa 1-0 with a goal from Musa Barrow.
The Serie A champion will be decided on Sunday - the final day of the season -when leaders AC Milan visit Sassuolo and defending champions Inter Milan, two points adrift, hosts Sampdoria.
