The line-ups are in for Tuesday evening’s Coppa Italia quarter-final between Atalanta and Bologna at the Gewiss Stadium, as Gian Piero Gasperini includes both of his January signings in his squad, and Vincenzo Italiano now has Davide Calabria at his disposal.
Kick-off is due at 20.00 GMT.
La Dea welcomed Daniel Maldini in a permanent transfer from Monza, as well as Stefan Posch, who joined from Atalanta’s opponents, Bologna, on deadline day. Both are in the matchday squad, but not in the starting XI. They could still come on for their debuts on Tuesday night, though.
Davide Calabria was Bologna’s only addition of the January transfer window, joining from Milan. He has also not been selected in the starting XI, but is with the team and could also come on for his first Rossoblu appearance.
Both teams have gone with relatively strong teams. Mateo Retegui and Charles De Ketelaere lead the line for La Dea, with a supporting cast of Mario Pasalic, Marten De Roon and Ederson behind them.
Italiano has named a fairly familiar Bologna team as well, but has opted to go with Thijs Dallinga instead of Santiago Castro up front.
Atalanta (3-4-1-2): Rui Patricio; Toloi, Hien, Djimsiti; Bellanova, De Roon, Ederson, Zappacosta; Pasalic; De Ketelaere, Retegui.
Bologna (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Holm, Beukema, Lucumi, Lykogiannis; Freuler, Pobega; Odgaard, Fabbian, Ndoye; Dallinga.
