Luis Muriel is set to partner Ademola Lookman up front for Atalanta, who face Salernitana in the final match of the 16th round of Serie A fixtures on Monday evening.
La Dea have the opportunity to leapfrog Jose Mourinho’s Roma into seventh place in the league standings. Salernitana would need to win by a margin of nine goals if they are to lift themselves off the bottom of the table on Monday night.
Gian Piero Gasperini will be unable to call upon Jose Luis Palomino, Rafael Toloi, El Bilal Toure and Gianluca Scamacca, who all miss out through injury. Sead Kolasinac was also not fit enough to make the starting XI.
Salernitana are set to line-up with a front three, comprising Antonio Candreva, 20-year-old Loum Tchaouna and last season’s top scorer Boulaye Dia.
Kick-off is due at 19.45 GMT.
Atalanta (3-4-1-2): Musso; De Roon, Djimsiti, Scalvini; Zappacosta, Ederson, Pasalic, Ruggeri; Koopmeiners; Lookman, Muriel.
Salernitana (3-4-4): Costil; Daniliuc, Gyomber, Pirola; Mazzocchi, Coulibaly, Maggiore, Martegani; Tchaouna, Dia, Candreva.
