Live in-play betting – 

Impressive Atalanta host AC Milan in this match that could see them further widen the points gap between them and the former Italian champions.

Atalanta have had a campaign they should be proud of for a team built around youngsters.

They have proved their doubters wrong and are set to play in Europe next season ahead of AC Milan and Inter Milan.

They are currently 5th in the league table with 65 points, 6 points more than their opponents in this game.

They have not lost any of their last 6 league games winning 2 and drawing the rest.

They are unbeaten in their last 9 league games at home and took 4 points from their last 2 home games.

AC Milan have had another underwhelming season that will see them miss out on European football yet again next season.

They are currently 6th in the league table, 6 points off the last European spot and they lead city rivals Inter Milan by 3 points.

They can halt Atalanta’s momentum by winning this game but their recent form suggest that is unlikely.

They have no wins in their last 4 league games, losing 2 and drawing 2.

They have 2 wins and 4 draws from their last 7 away games in the league and are currently on a run of 3 straight away draws.

Atalanta (probable): Berisha; Toloi, Caldara, Masiello; Conti, Cristante, Freuler, Spinazzola; Kurtic; Gomez, Petagna

Suspended: None

Milan (probable): Donnarumma; Calabria, Cristian Zapata, Romagnoli, De Sciglio; Kucka, Sosa, Pasalic; Suso, Bacca, Deulofeu

Suspended: Paletta, Ocampos
