Atalanta kept their momentum with a narrow 0:1 victory away to Cagliari last weekend, with the game earned a bit more difficult than what was expected.
The only goal was scored back in the 66th minute via Zaniolo, with team from Bergamo probably deserving to concede in the first halftime, but overcome the situation in the second and improved with a bit more concrete performance in the attack.

Atalanta comes into this match with huge confidence and their roster definitely has the capacity to step-up here and overcome the situation with busy schedule. Cesena still has promotional hopes and there's no doubt that they want to improve the chances there, having weak 1-2-5 record so far away from home. They shouldn't remain competitive for far too long, with Atalanta anyway having perfect roster and bench players compared to the guests.
While specific lineups have not been disclosed in the available analyses , it is noted that Atalanta will be without key forward Gianluca Scamacca due to injury. This could impact their attacking strategy but does not significantly diminish their overall strength. As both teams vie for advancement to the quarterfinals against Bologna, spectators can anticipate an engaging match that highlights the contrasting trajectories of these clubs.
