Starting in defense
Djimsiti (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Sunday's clash against Bologna.
Analysis: Djimsiti gutted it out through the soreness that had left him to be evaluated until the last moment, with the game-day assessment returning a positive outcome and coach Raffaele Palladino clearing him to start in what is a critically depleted defensive situation for Atalanta. His availability is a massive relief for a side already without Isak Hien through suspension and with Odilon Kossounou also unavailable, leaving the coaching staff with virtually no other options at the back. His willingness to push through the discomfort underlines the importance of the fixture and the extent to which Atalanta are relying on him to hold the defensive line together heading into the weekend.
Touch-and-go for Bologna tilt
Djimsiti (hamstring) "will be evaluated until the last moment," coach Raffaele Palladino relayed.
Analysis: Djimsiti is dealing mostly with some soreness and will be assessed on game day. He might gut it out since Isak Hien is suspended and Odilon Kossounou (thigh) and Giorgio Scalvini (ankle) are unavailable.
