Gianluca Scamacca is favourite over Charles De Ketelaere to start in Atalanta‘s attack against Sporting CP in the Europa League Round of 16 first leg today.
It kicks off at 17:45 GMT.
Atalanta and Sporting already met during the group stage this season and La Dea are unbeaten with one away victory and a draw at home.
Gian Piero Gasperini can rely on a full team, but he is expected to rotate his team slightly in Portugal today.
Juan Musso is tipped to replace Marco Carnesecchi in goal, while Isak Hien is favourite over Berat Djimsiti in defence. Emil Holm will return to the starting XI as a right wing-back and the same is true of Ederson who will start in central midfield after partially resting against Bologna on Sunday.
There are a few doubts in attack where Italy international Scamacca is favourite De Ketelaere. At the same time, Teun Koopmeiners should start as an attacking midfielder, but Aleksei Miranchuk remains an option for Gasp.
Sporting CP-Atalanta, probable line-ups
Sporting CP (3-4-3): Franco Israel; Quaresma, Coates, Reis; Genny Catamo, Hjulmand, Morita, Nuno Santos; Edwards, Gyokeres, Trincao.
Atalanta (3-4-2-1): Musso; Scalvini, Hien, Kolasinac; Holm, De Roon, Ederson, Ruggeri; Koopmeiners, Lookman; Scamacca.
