Maurizio Sarri looks to Nikola Krstovic for a home Serie A match against strugglers Venezia, who pick Akor Adams and John Yeboah up front.

It kicks off at 18:30 CET [17:30 BST] at Bergamo’s Gewiss Stadium.

Neither side is in great shape: Atalanta have lost their last three matches, while Venezia have lost all five of their opening games.

Atalanta coach Sarri picks a 4-2-3-1 system, slightly different from the 4-3-3 deployed so far. The biggest change is Charles De Ketelaere playing as an attacking midfielder with Eljif Elmas on the right and Jonathan Rowe on the left.

Italy international Gianluca Scamacca starts on the bench for La Dea as Krstovic gets the nod up front. Lorenzo Bernasconi and Sead Kolasinac also start on the bench, with Davide Zappacosta starting at left-back.

Venezia look to Yeboah and Adams up front, while Toma Basic returns from an injury and gets straight back to the starting XI.

Serie A Round 6 ends tonight with Torino hosting Udinese at 20:45 CET.
