MIL Vs ATN Dream11 Probable Playing 11 And Match Report:Edge of the seat ripping thriller on our hands today when two stalwarts clash it out in the middle
For all their consummate success and rampant brand of astounding attacking football, Atalanta will be ruing how the last two weeks have transpired for the club. With Juventus falling to yet another draw yesterday, Atalanta could have found themselves in with a real shot of winning the title had the club managed to win all of its bygone five encounters.
While the club is unbeaten over that stretch of results, the fact that those performances are sprinkled with draws saw the side lose steam in its aspirations of challenging for the glistening Serie A 2019-20 trophy. Currently six points behind Juventus with only three ties to go in the showpiece league, its fair to say that Atalanta’s title battle has gone off the boil.
However, despite that narrative the final stretch of fixtures are hardly inconsequential ties for Atalanta, especially today’s incoming encounter. The side is up against a rejuvenated AC Milan team, a side which has completely overhauled its sortie, resurrecting a tottering and underwhelming season since the restart of the league.
Probable Winner
With three wins on the spin, AC Milan find themselves having made massive strides in the league to sit as high as 6th spot at the moment. In the Europa League positions, the club will be looking to hammer its position in the coveted spots by keeping its winning run intact.
They’ll face a stern test today though with an exuberant attacking side up against them, a team they’ll find tough to keep at bay as they go onto lose this one.

MIL Vs ATN Dream11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
While occulting Atalanta’s barrage of shots was always going to be a tough ask, the slew of injuries which have struck AC Milan only go onto make their task tougher. A depleted backline is going to have to immensely rely upon goal-keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to rescue it, something his recent performances show he’s capable of doing.
Defenders
Two sides on the uptick, equipped with gripping attacking ambits will see us be in for an extradonaire attacking feast today. These are exquisite attacking teams, side whose endeavours have seen them pull off a string of goals in their recent clashes to see the narrative of a cleansheet for either side all but go up in smoke.
If there’s any team capable of keeping its slender chances of a win alive through today, its Atalanta. The team has shown guile and pluck in defence all season long, disciple and grit which was on show in the team’s bygone cleansheet in its 1-0 win.
Adding to that rhetoric is the expansive skill set Hans Hateboer has, a wingback who has been ever to willing to maraud his way into the side’s attacking gameplan as well. It sees him become the first pick from the side along with the diminutive and indomitable duo of Rafael Toloi and Mattia Caldara.
Midfielders
When AC Milan had returned to the league after three months, the side knew it had to address its wavering and regressing attacking slot if it was to reinvent itself as a club. And Hakan Calhanoglu was more than willing to shoulder the onus of scoring for the club with the player’s imperious showings since the restart leading the side’s charge into the pinnacles of the league.
Now up to the 7 goals and 8 assists this season, he makes for a must have pick for the impending scrimmage. CDM Franck Kessie is going to be accompanied alongside him, a player who has stamped his authority in the side’s defence to leave opposition’s bereaved and in a quandary of how to traverse their way past him.
Atalanta elsewhere will see us make Robin Gosens the first pick in this slot of our Dream 11 side. He’s pulled off a staggering 8 assists, numbers which have seen him attract interest from Premier League side Chelsea.
Marten de Roon links up with him to wrap up our two man pick from the visiting team for the day.
Strikers
While it’s been extremely difficult to pick out one name as the mainstay of this Atalanta attack with everyone scoring and contributing to the side, Luis Muriel has managed to stand tall amongst his counterparts. He’s the top scorer for the side this season to see him be a must have pick for us along with daunting Alejandro Gomez who has the 16 assists to his name.
The opposition meanwhile see us opt for Zlatan Ibrahimovic whose goal in the foregone tie now sees him at the 7 goals and 4 assists this season.
Captain And Vice-Captain
A gargantuan 18 goals for Muriel will see him captain our team while Gomez is the vice-captain.
Dream 11 Team
Donnarumma, Toloi, Hans, Caldara, Hakan, Kessie, Gosens, Roon, Zlatan, Muriel, Gomez
