Serie A: Salernitana vs Atalanta – probable line-ups | OneFootball

Atalanta have the chance to take a decisive step forward in the fight for Champions League qualification with a win over Serie B bound Salernitana.

The match between the Granata and la Dea kicks off at 17.00 UK time at the Stadio Arechi in Salerno.

Salernitana will be hoping to try and enjoy every remaining minute in Serie A this term as they prepare to drop down to the second tier, having already mathematically guaranteed relegation after a disastrous season in the topflight, picking up just two wins across 34 matches.

The Campania outfit cannot count on the injured Guillermo Ochoa, Nobert Gyomber, Giulio Maggiore, Antonio Candreva, Iron Gomis and Jerome Boateng. Niccolo Pierozzi is unavailable through suspension.

Atalanta sit sixth in the Serie A table, just three points behind Roma, who are desperate to secure the fifth Champions League spot. With two games in hand, Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have the chance to leapfrog the Giallorossi before the finish line, keeping things tense.

La Dea are without Rafael Toloi, Sead Kolasinac and Emil Holm, all sidelined with injuries.

When these two teams met back in December, Atalanta found no trouble in a commanding 4-1 win over Salernitana.
