Once upon a time in Hollywood…Atalanta. The Nerazzurri team this afternoon at 3 p.m. (referee Pairetto, live TV on Dazn) will try to star on the red carpet at Como’s Sinigaglia stadium, a hotspot for Los Angeles stars. From Kate Beckinsale to Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley to Hugh Grant. Also among the American stars is Atalanta, which has an overseas Co-Chairman, Stephen Pagliuca, and is wearing the Europa League title: an attractive competition in Como, as Corriere di Bergamo writes.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reckons with the Nerazzurri’s numbers: Atalanta has not won in the league for more than a month and still has two defenders missing (Hien disqualified, Kossounou injured) and another central defender warned (Djimsiti), but Gasperini has recovered Nicolò Zaniolo, back available after the muscle soreness that had kept him out of the Champions League match with Sturm Graz. He too, however, is cautioned. An extra offensive option is wild card Cuadrado, not just a midfield outside, but a real offensive outside player who sprints down the lane burning opponents at speed and serves interesting crosses.
