Gian Piero Gasperini takes stock

Wednesday night’s match is yet another appointment with history for Atalanta, which will play against Barcelona in Montjuic for a chance to go directly to the Champions League round of 16 without going through the playoff. Gian Piero Gasperini, forò, will have to do without one of the most important pawns of the Nerazzurri chessboard, striker Ademola Lookman.

“Unfortunately, we expected it, he è dragged this physical problem from the game against Napoli – said the coach of the orobici to ‘Sky Sport’ -. Until now he had played on it, giving the feeling that he could still recover, but yesterday the discomfort è increased and the examinations confirmed a stop of three weeks. We hope it will be even less long”.

The examinations found a “distractive injury to the right knee with involvement of the lateral joint compartment”, as explained by the club. It is difficult, for Gasperini himself, for the management to intervene in the market to replace Lookman during the stop: “It’s a question that the club can answer better than I can, but I don&#39t think the situation can change today, there is too little time left until the end of the winter market”.

Against Barcelona, Atalanta is aiming to confirm the brilliant results of the first few days: in seven matches it has in fact earned 14 points, winning against Shakhtar (3-0), Stuttgart (2-0), Young Boys (6-1) and Sturm Graz (5-0), drawing against Arsenal and Celtic (0-0 in both matches) and losing only to Real Madrid, with a score of 3-2.

Portsmouth-Millwall, the likely lineups.

Portsmouth, 21st in the standings and with only a one-point margin over the relegation zone, seeks redemption after the heavy 5-1 loss to West Bromwich. Pompey, in a results crisis, face in the recovery of the 17th day of the Championship a Millwall reinvigorated by the victory over Luton, which broke a six-match winless streak. With different goals but similar urgencies, both teams aim to score heavy points in a challenge that promises battle. Kickoff at Fratton Park at 8:45 p.m.

The hosts are banking on a 4-2-3-1 with Bishop as the offensive reference, supported by Lang, Ritchie and Murphy. In the midfield Hayden and Potts provide balance, while the defense led by Pack and Atkinson seeks solidity after the recent knockout.

Neil is also expected to rely on the 4-2-3-1, with Ivanovic acting as the only forward. Bangura-Williams, Watmore and Connolly, on the other hand, will make up the trequartista line. In the midfield, trust Saville and De Norre, while Tanganga and Cooper will lead the defense in front of Roberts.

Probable Lineups

Portsmouth (4-2-3-1) :Schmid; Williams, Pack, Atkinson, Ogilvie; Hayden, Potts; Ritchie, Lang, Murphy; Bishop. All Mousinho.

Millwall (4-2-3-1): Roberts; Crama, Tanganga, Cooper, Bryan; Saville, De Norre; Watmore, Bangura-Williams, Connolly; Ivanovic. All Neil.
