Atalanta-Cesena is a match valid for the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia and is played on Wednesday at 6:30pm: news, likely lineups, prediction, TV and streaming.
In the last weekend Atalanta proved once again that it has all the cards to be able to aspire to the tricolor, making its 3 points even at the end of a very complicated match against Cagliari (0-1) and gaining its tenth win in a row in the league (never happened before in its history). Truly sensational moment for Gian Piero Gasperini’s team, which thanks to a very long and quality squad is now able to win even those so-called “dirty” matches, which in the end make the difference.
The decisive goal, in Sardinia, was scored by Zaniolo, still decisive coming off the bench as against Roma: a glimpse of his allowed Dea to keep the top of the standings and prevent a possible counter-takeover by Napoli, who remained -2 from the Bergamasks. The reaction that was needed, in short, after the Champions League defeat to Real Madrid. Now the focus shifts to the Coppa Italia, a trophy that Atalanta came close to winning last year (final lost to Juventus) and that Gasperini’s management has never snubbed.
The first obstacle to the last act in Rome is Cesena, a team that plays in the Serie B league. The Romagnoli are performing well despite having returned this year from C after a long absence among the cadets and have made it through three cup rounds, knocking off Padova, Verona and Pisa. They are fifth in the standings, in the middle of the playoff zone, and last Saturday they returned to winning ways after three days (and two losses in a row): goals from Tavsan and Berti bent a stout Cosenza (2-1).
Gasperini is expected to rotate several players, giving minutes to those who have played little so far. Turnover in sight also for Michele Mignani, bianconeri coach, who will prioritize the championship challenge with Juve Stabia.

The Prediction
Cesena have already scalped a Serie A team, Verona, but their run in the Coppa Italia will most likely stop there. Atalanta, although Gasperini is set to make a large turnover, is a clear favorite in a match of at least 3 goals overall. La Dea will probably score 2 to 4.
