Atalanta host Venezia at the Gewiss Stadium in Serie A on Tuesday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.
Atalanta are currently fourth in the league, three points off Inter Milan in third. Gian Piero Gasperini's side have been in great form of late and are unbeaten in their last eight games across all competitions. They should be confident of extending their streak with a win against Venezia this week.
Venezia, on the other hand, are 16th in the league, five points above the relegation zone. Paolo Zanetti's side will go into the game off the back of a 2-0 loss against Inter Milan last time out. They will look to bounce back with a win against Atalanta on Tuesday.
Both sides are looking to win the game and climb up the table. That should make Tuesday's contest an interesting matchup.
