Atalanta preview: Plagued by injuries

Atalanta's injury crisis continued as Sead Kolasinac limped off feeling a muscular twinge in his right thigh during their draw with Torino.

The former Arsenal defender joins Giorgio Scalvini, Ademola Lookman and Odilon Kossounou on the treatment table. However, the return of Gianluca Scamacca should be a great boost for Gian Piero Gasperini’s side.

Predicted lineup: Patricio (GK) Djimsiti, Hien, Toloi, Bellanova, De Roon, Ederson, Cuadrado, Samardzic, Pasalic & Retegui.
