Serie A 2024-2025: Como-Atalanta, the probable formations

Como-Atalanta opens the Saturday program of the 22nd day of Serie A, with the teams taking the field at the Sinigaglia stadium at 3 p.m. A very important challenge for Gian Piero Gasperini’s team, which precisely with the defeat against the Larians in Bergamo at the first leg experienced the lowest point of the crisis at the beginning of the season. Now points are needed, to put the recent slowdown (three points in four days after 11 straight wins) behind them. On the other side are Cesc Fabregas’ men, fresh from the round victory over Udinese and intent on further growth: they are currently +3 from the relegation zone.

Fabregas will still rely on the one point, which will be Patrick Cutrone. Behind him are three midfielders: the very young Diao, Strefezza and Fadera, by the way the last two already punished Atalanta in September. At the center of the maneuver Caqueret with Da Cunha, on the right lane ready Jack, in goal confirmed Butez.

Gasperini returns to propose a formation very similar to the ideal one, with Retegui and Lookman in attack and De Ketelaere again starting behind them. Ederson returns alongside captain De Roon, more Bellanova than Zappacosta on the right with Ruggeri on the opposite lane. In defense again Scalvini, in place of Hien and the injured Kossounou.

Como-Atalanta, the likely lineups:

COMO (4-2-3-1): Butez; Jack, Dossena, Kempf, Van Der Brempt; Da Cunha, Caqueret; Fadera, Strefezza, Diao; Cutrone. All. Fabregas
ATALANTA (3-4-1-2): Carnesecchi; Scalvini, Djimsiti, Kolasinac; Bellanova, de Roon, Ederson, Ruggeri; De Ketelaere; Lookman, Retegui.All. Gasperini.
