Kolo Muani: Spearheading Juventus' Attack Against Atalanta

September 20, 2026Diego Herrera1 мин

Randal Kolo Muani is expected to lead Juventus' attack against Atalanta, looking to build on his recent goal. Woltemade is likely to start on the bench.

This match marks a statistical milestone for Kolo Muani, as he approaches his 200th appearance in Europe's top five leagues. So far, he has scored 54 goals and provided 28 assists.

Conceição Returns, Nico Gonzalez Aims for Consistency

Despite the significant absence of Yildiz, Spalletti has several attacking options behind the main striker.

Francisco Conceição is expected to return to the starting lineup after being rested during the Europa League match.

Nico Gonzalez offers a threat between the lines and can support Kolo Muani. The Argentine has a strong record against Atalanta, contributing to three goals (one goal, two assists) in seven Serie A encounters.

Alajbegovic remains an offensive option, while Zhegrova and Woltemade could be impactful substitutes.

Kolo Muani Seeks Further Confirmation

The match against Atalanta presents another crucial opportunity for Kolo Muani. After finding the net, his goal is to make this the start of a new scoring run.

Juventus will particularly need his speed when regaining possession and exploiting space. Technical players behind him can allow Kolo Muani to focus more on attacking the depth and the penalty area.

Spalletti appears ready to place his trust in Kolo Muani again. The team has regained momentum, but another strong performance is needed against Atalanta.
