Atalanta, on the other hand, have also enjoyed an excellent start to their league campaign. Recent seasons have seen the departure of important players like Papu Gomez and Remo Freuler. However, young stars like Teun Koopmeiners and Ademola Lookman have started the season in good form, and manager Gian Piero Gasperini will be happy with how his squad is shaping up this season.

Atalanta finished eighth last season, and there were rumours that Gasperini was set to leave the club in the summer gone by. However the 64-year old, who has helped make Atalanta one of the best teams in Italy during his time, stayed on as coach and Atalanta once again look like a top team.
Two in-form teams will face each other, and we expect Atalanta to emerge victorious here.
