Atalanta vs Como Team Previews, Form and Standout Players

This game is sure to be an interesting fixture as Como look to turn around their poor start to the season. However, coming up against an Atalanta side that are in good form and looking to push on even more they may struggle.

It really is a must win fixture in the Italian Serie A.

Atalanta Preview: Turning It Around

Predicted Lineup - Marco Carnesecchi, Odlion Kossounou, Isak Hien, Berat Djimsiti, Raoul Bellanova, Ederson, Mario Pasalic, Matteo Ruggeri, Lazar Samardzic, Ademola Lookman, Mateo Retegui

Atalanta had a slow start to the season losing two of their opening three games but in recent weeks they have started to turn things around. Now they sit 8th in the table on six points.

Not only this but they have also scored eight goals in the league so far - this the joint second most goals scored in the league. They have been let down by their defence though having conceded eight goals as well - the joint most in the division.

Out of the eight goals they have scored this season, four of them have been scored by Mateo Retegui. This is a record of four goals in four games for him. This puts him top of the scoring charts in Italy. If anyone is to score in this game it will surely be him.

Como Preview: A Slow Start

Predicted Lineup - Pepe Reina, Alessio Iovine, Marc-Oliver Kempf, Edoardo Goldaniga, Alberto Moreno, Maximo Perrone, Sergi Roberto, Gabriel Strefezza, Nico Paz, Alieu Fadera, Patrick Cutrone

Como have struggled to adapt to life in the Serie A. They are yet to win a game in the division and currently sit in 18th place on just two points. A disappointing start.

In fact they have only scored three goals so far this year conceding seven.

Their top performer though is striker Patrick Cutrone who has picked up where he left off from last season. He already has three goals in five games in all competitions for Como so if anyone is going to help turn around their form this year it will be him.
