ℹ️ Team News: Atalanta

Sead Kolasinac (muscular problems) and Giorgio Scalvini (Hamstring muscle injury) won’t be available for Atalanta manager Gian Gasperini. Players who are serving a ban and are therefore ineligible to play are Davide Zappacosta and Marten de Roon.

We think that La Dea will possibly opt for a 3-4-1-2 system in the match featuring Marco Carnesecchi, Rafael Toloi, Berat Djimsiti, Isak Hien, Emil Holm, Matteo Ruggeri, Mario Pasalic, Ederson, Teun Koopmeiners, Charles De Ketelaere and Gianluca Scamacca.

🗞️ Team News: Hellas Verona

Hellas Verona boss Marco Baroni has to choose a team with limited availability. Ondrej Duda (unknown injury) and Juan Manuel Cruz (unknown injury) will miss out on this game. Suat Serdar will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

We’re of the thinking that Hellas Verona seem most likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation, choosing Lorenzo Montipo, Fabien Centonze, Pawel Dawidowicz, Giangiacomo Magnani, Juan Cabal, Michael Folorunsho, Daniel Silva, Tomas Suslov, Tijjani Noslin, Darko Lazovic and Federico Bonazzoli.
