Preview: Juventus vs. Atalanta BC

Atalanta BC ended a three-match losing streak with victory over Parma last Saturday, but will be up against it when they travel to reigning champions Juventus tomorrow night.

The Bianconeri are currently top of the pile in Serie A with 12 wins from 16 games, while the visitors are going steady in 10th place.

Antonio Conte, now back on the touchline following his ban, will be without Nicklas Bendtner for the visit of La Dea. The Danish striker has been ruled out for up to three months with a leg injury.

Emanuele Giaccherini and Arturo Vidal are also struggling to be fit after picking up injuries during last week's win over Palermo.

Sebastian Giovinco will be welcomed back from his suspension, but Leonardo Bonucci takes his place in the sin bin.

Meanwhile, defender Daniele Capelli will be missing for Stefano Colantuono, who is boosted by the return of James Troisi, Davide Biondini, Ferreira Pinto and Guglielmo Stendardo.
