Just a year ago, Atalanta was engaged in the race for
Scudetto
when AC Milan was vegetating in the soft underbelly of the ranking. Water flowed under the bridges, and the trajectories of the Lombard neighbors were reversed. While the Bergamo club has fallen into line, Milan has regained its splendor to return to the forefront.
Second in Serie A, the most successful Italian club on the European scene approaches the rest of this campaign with the firm intention of recovering the title, three years after its last coronation. To do this, the Rossoneri will have to face competition from their rival, Inter, but also from the reigning champion, Naples. This Tuesday's test will be interesting to gauge the state of form of Massimiliano Allegri's team. A derby that Milan will tackle without Adrien Rabiot, still in the infirmary.
The expected compositions
Atalanta : Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, Hien, Ahanor; Bellanova, Ederson, De Roon, Zalewski; De Ketelaere, Lookman; Scamacca.
AC Milan : Maignan; Tomori, Gabbia, Pavlovic; Saelemaekers, Fofana, Modric, Ricci, Bartesaghi; Nkunku, Leao.
Where to watch the match?
This match between Atalanta and AC Milan counting for the 9th day of Serie A will be broadcast this Tuesday on DAZN, from 8:45 p.m.
