La Dea already wasted the chance to leapfrog Milan into second with their midweek draw against Roma, paying for some dreadful finishing.
Gian Piero Gasperini has almost a full squad to choose from, as Robin Gosens is suspended, but Hans Hateboer returns straight into the starting XI after three months out.
Malinovskyi and Muriel support Duvan Zapata in a very attack-minded formation.
Bologna are comfortably mid-table, but also remarkably inconsistent, so can never be taken for granted.
The growing injury list includes Nico Dominguez, Mitchell Dijks, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Aaron Hickey, Gary Medel and Federico Santander.
Rodrigo Palacio leads the way with support from Andreas Skov Olsen, Roberto Soriano and former Atalanta youth product Barrow.
It seems to be a three-man defence, a transformation for Sinisa Mihajlovic's general approach.
Atalanta: Gollini; Toloi, Romero, Djimsiti; Hateboer, De Roon, Freuler, Maehle; Malinovskyi; Muriel, Duvan Zapata
Bologna: Skorupski; Danilo, Antov, Soumaoro; Skov Olsen, Schouten, Svanberg, De Silvestri; Soriano, Barrow; Palacio
