Confirmed lineups for Juve v Atalanta

The two Italian giants face each other at the Allianz Stadium with high stakes on the line, as Scudetto hopes are still alive for both. Juventus sit fourth in the table and are currently on a five-game winning league streak following their 2-0 home victory against relegation-battling Hellas Verona on Monday.

On the other hand, Atalanta are just ahead by three points, sitting in third. 'La Dea' squandered a golden chance to close the gap on Inter up top with a scoreless draw against lowly Venezia. Both clubs are seeking redemption after their slumps in the Champions League and Coppa Italia.

For the trip to Turin, Gian Piero Gasperini is without Gianluca Scamacca, Odilon Kossounou, and Giorgio Scalvini, who are unavailable with injuries. Ex-Bologna defender Stefan Posh is also out with a minor fitness problem, while Isak Hien should start despite his recent injury concerns.

Thiago Motta has also been deprived of several crucial first-team players ahead of the game. Nicolo Savona, Francisco Conceicao, and Douglas Luiz are all ruled out with injuries, joining long-term absentees, Arkadiusz Milik, Juan Cabal and Gleison Bremer on the sidelines.

Juventus' starting XI: Di Gregorio (GK); Weah, Gatti, Kelly, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; McKennie, Yildiz, Gonzalez; Kolo Muani.

Atalanta's starting XI: Carnesecchi (GK); Djimsiti, Hien, Kolasinac; Bellanova, De Roon, Ederson, Zappacosta; Cuadrado; Retegui, Lookman.
