Serie A official line-ups: Atalanta vs. Venezia | OneFootball

Atalanta have the opportunity to close on the leading pack ahead of the Scudetto showdown, as Ademola Lookman and Mateo Retegui start against troubled Venezia.

It kicks off at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo at 14.00 GMT.

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from this game, Napoli vs. Inter and Udinese-Parma on the Liveblog.

If Atalanta win here and the head-to-head ends in a draw, by the end of the day we could have Inter on 58 points, Napoli and Atalanta on 57, so the title race is wide open.

The injury crisis drags on, with Isak Hien, Odilon Kossounou, Gianluca Scamacca and Giorgio Scalvini still out, but Daniel Maldini is back on the bench.

Lookman made his return to the starting XI with a brace in the 5-0 victory over Empoli and again partners Retegui and Charles De Ketelaere, despite his frosty rapport with coach Gian Piero Gasperini.

Venezia remain in penultimate place and are without a win in 2025, but did hold Lazio to a surprising 0-0 draw last week.

Francesco Zampano misses out with flu symptoms, joining Marin Sverko, Richie Sagrado, Filip Stankovic and Michael Svoboda on the absentee list.

January signing Kike Perez steps in with Gaetano Oristanio and Mirko Maric upfront, as Daniel Fila is struggling to adapt to Serie A.
