The Gewiss Stadium as the twelfth man on the pitch, to push theAtalanta towards a historic milestone: the Europa League final in Dublin. And on Sunday, three days before the Italian Cup final, the decisive direct clash with Roma to secure participation in the next Champions League. The most important week of the season begins tonight, perhaps of the entire life of the Bergamo club. In the second act of the semi-final with theOlympique Marseille we start again from the draw (1-1) of a week ago in the chaos of the Velodrome. The Goddess came out unscathed, but now she will have to complete the work, to give herself a dream. Spanish refereeing team: management entrusted to Jesus Gil Manzano, assisted by his compatriots Barbero and Nevado. Fourth official is the Ukrainian Balakin. VAR Martinez Munuera, AVAR Hernandez. Kick-off at 9pm.
HOW ATALANTA ARRIVES – Gasperini relaunches the starters, after the moderate turnover during the last difficult success in the championship. Nothing to be done for the injured Kolasinac, Toloi, Holm, absent from the finishing session like Palomino, who is off the list. Between the posts the usual relay between Carnesecchi and the cup goalkeeper Musso. Djimsiti returns to defense, together with Hien and Scalvini. De Roon climbs into the midfield to recompose the tandem with Ederson, while Zappacosta and Ruggeri will take possession of the external lanes. In the attacking midfield, Koopmeiners, decisive when coming off the bench in Salerno, will have the task of supporting De Ketelaere and Scamacca.
HOW MARSEILLE ARRIVES – Full team, Gasset took advantage of the rest in Ligue 1 to recover all the injured players in addition to Gigot, who returned from suspension. The main doubt concerns the starting formation: the expert French coach must decide whether to confirm the three-man defense or alternatively tack on 4-3-3. In any case, former Serie A players Kondogbia and Veretout will form the midfield hinge, in the department completed by Harit. The certainty in attack is called Aubameyang, top scorer not only of this edition but of the competition overall, in the shadows in the first leg with a missed goal on his conscience.
