Atalanta with 35 points is just three shy away from fourth-placed AS Roma. SPAL on the other end has had an underwhelming season so far as they find themselves at the bottom of the Italian league with just 12 points on board.

Atalanta
Hans Hateboer undergoes suspension and should be making way for Timothy Castagne to fill in at the right-back position. Meanwhile, Mattia Caldara is likely to be on the bench in spite of starting in the Copa Itala game this week. Illicic and Zapata are likely to lead the attack for the hosts.
SPAL
Mohamed Fares and Marco D’ Alessa remain on the sidelines due to injuries. Petagna and Francesco are likely to lead the attack. Strefezza, Murgia, Missirolo, Valoti and Julio could chip in as the five-man midfield, while Cionek, Vicari and Felipe could be the three centre backs.

SPAL (Expected Playing 11)- Berisha; Cionek, Vicari, Felipe; Strefezza, Muriga, Missiroli, Valoti, Julio; Petagna, Francesco
