Team News

  • Coach Colantuono may stick with the 3-man defence that kept a clean sheet last time out.
  • Peluso will join the midfield on the left side, letting Moralez play behind the two strikers.
  • Marilungo or Gabbiadini will partner Denis, as Tiribocchi should miss this match as well due to an injury.
  • As Moretti, Bovo and Antonelli are out and Rossi has to play on the right flank due to Mesto's suspension, Constant will be the left-back once again.
  • Belluschi is set to support Palacio alongside Jankovic and Sculli, with Gilardino still sidelined.
  • Zè Eduardo could be given a chance during the game, with Palacio moving a little closer to the midfield.

Prediction

  • Atalanta kept Lecce 6 points adrift but they missed the chance to widen the gap with the home match they played on Sunday. Considering Genoa's bad form away from the Ferraris, coach Colantuono should push for the three points here.
  • Genoa have conceded 18 goals in their last 4 away matches, losing them all and failing to find a balance with their home performances in which they have won their last four matches. After this disappointing streak, Marino may well think about damage control, going for one point and a better defensive performance.
  • Atalanta are looking to hit better form, while Genoa are seeking balance. The key for this match will be the two flanks, as Colantuono is shaping a new line-up with Peluso and Schelotto free to run all along the side lines. In the end, Atalanta could prove to be more solid and exploit their opponents' defensive weakness. This has to be the best chance for German Denis to get back on the scoresheet.
