Serie A: Atalanta vs. Sassuolo – Probable Line-ups and TV Coverage

Atalanta aim to recover from their 1-0 defeat to Udinese in their last league outing. However, they come into this match after securing a 1-0 victory away to Marseille in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Marten De Roon is also expected to return to Atalanta’s midfield, potentially partnering with Ederson and Mario Pasalic according to Sky Sport Italia.
Sassuolo, who lost 2-1 to Genoa in their last league match, are not planning major changes. Their attacking trio should once again feature Domenico Berardi, Andrea Pinamonti, and Armand Lauriente.
