Atalanta are 4th in the league, eight points behind league leaders Inter Milan. While it is unlikely that they will clinch the league title this season, Atalanta's continued progress under Gian Piero Gasperini has to be applauded. Their recruitment has seen them sign talents like Teun Koopmeiners and Joakim Maehle in recent seasons to great success.

Torino, on the other hand, are 11th in the league, having won two of their last five league games. Brazilian centre-back Gleison Bremer has produced some good performances and has been linked with clubs like Chelsea and Liverpool recently.

Atalanta should beat Torino.

Prediction: Atalanta 3-1 Torino
