Atalanta BC play host to Bologna on Tuesday evening knowing that they can ill-afford any more dropped points if they want to remain in the Serie A title race.

Meanwhile, Bologna make the trip to the Gewiss Stadium looking to bounce back from a heavy defeat to AC Milan, a result which extended their winless streak to four matches.

We say: Atalanta BC 4-1 Bologna

With the freedom to throw caution to the wind and having slipped up in their last outing, we expect a positive response from the home side, who will feel confident about outclassing opponents who are low in confidence.

Sassuolo play host to AC Milan on Tuesday evening aware that only maximum points will do if they wish to remain in the race for the top six in the Serie A standings.

Milan - holding an eight-point advantage over their next opponents - make the trip to the Mapei Stadium with the same end-of-season target, which was made more achievable with a dominant win over Bologna.

We say: Sassuolo 1-2 AC Milan

This has all the makings of a high-quality encounter. However, despite emerging as surprise contenders for a European place, we feel that Sassuolo may have to take too many gambles to gain all three points, allowing their opponents to capitalise at the other end.
