-----------------------------------
Atalanta
Atalanta could be the most in-form team in Europe’s top-five leagues alongside runaway Premier League leaders Liverpool. Gasperini’s men come into proceedings unbeaten in 13 matches across all competitions (W11, D2), including eight consecutive wins in the build-up to this heavyweight showdown.

Formidable goalscoring form has been the main ingredient behind Atalanta’s genuine Scudetto challenge this season. They have tallied a league-high 36 goals, netting at least two in 11 of their 14 Serie A outings thus far, including all six at the Gewiss Stadim. Given Milan’s defensive woes, Charles De Ketelaere and Ademola Lookman could have a field day.

After a torrid spell at Milan, De Ketealere has gone from strength to strength at Atalanta, becoming one of Serie A’s deadliest forwards. Gasperini will need his Belgian talisman at his best to help La Dea defy an underwhelming run of just one win from their last four home league meetings with the Rossoneri (D1, L2).

Atalanta (3-4-2-1): Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac; Bellanova, Ederson, De Roon, Ruggeri; De Ketelaere, Lookman; Retegui.

Milan
Stefano Pioli found a winning formula against Atalanta, but it took him a while. However, time is a luxury Fonseca cannot afford. He needs results, and he needs them now. Ominously for the Portuguese tactician, he failed to beat La Dea in all four matches as Roma boss (D1, L3).

Perhaps with Milan, he could turn his fortunes around. Fonseca’s side obliterated second-tier Sassuolo 6-1 in a one-sided Coppa Italia tie on Tuesday, setting themselves up nicely for this trip. It was the third consecutive game in all competitions to see Milan score 3+ goals.

Finding the net hasn’t been an issue for the Rossoneri, especially away from home. They’ve yet to draw a blank on the road, scoring on all six Serie A travels. It’s too bad their backline couldn’t keep up with the pace, conceding at least twice in four of those six games, hence a troubled away league record this season (W2, D2, L2).

Fonseca’s lads have developed a habit of packing a punch on this ground. They’ve bagged multiple goals on three of their last four top-flight visits to Bergamo, suggesting another impactful performance could be on the cards.

Milan (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Emerson, Gabbia, Thiaw, Hernandez; Fofana, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Morata.

Prediciton: Celta Vigo 1-1 Mallorca
Mallorca have not actually drawn away from home in La Liga this season, but we are predicting a stalemate here. Celta have been strong in front of their own fans this term, but Mallorca will be determined to bounce back from their poor performance against Barcelona, and we are expecting the visitors to be good enough for a point.
