Everton are currently struggling for form and until they solve their managerial problem, they look set to be on a bad run of form for an extended period of time.
After big summer spending, they have been underwhelming and caretaker manager, David Unsworth does not look like the person who can get them back on top of their game.
They have won only one of their last ten games and were outplayed for much of their 2-2 draw against bottom of the league Crystal Palace over the weekend.
Wayne Rooney is expected to return to the starting line up after being left on the bench for that game against Palace and should be fresh enough to help them secure a meaningless win here.
Atalanta on the other hand are having a good Europa League campaign and are currently vying for top spot with Olympique Lyon.
They defeated the Toffees 3-0 in the last game and they will look to inflict a double loss on them in this game.
Their 3-0 win over Everton in the reverse fixture was the first meeting between these two sides and Everton have won only one of their last seven games against Italian oppositions.
