The resolve of Gian Piero Gasperini. �s Atalanta will be put to a stern test this weekend when they welcome Genoa to the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo. After a disappointing run of results that has seen the Bergamo side drop valuable points, the pressure is now on the team to give a good account of themselves and reclaim their formidable reputation in Serie A. Raffaele Palladino, the Atalanta tactician, knows that in the scheme of things, every point counts in the chase for European qualification, and a slip up against a determined Genoa side would be a bitter pill to swallow for the home faithful. According to exclusive information gathered by GoalZaza, the probable line ups suggest that Atalanta will rely on their clinical attacking trio to break down a Genoa defence that has been resilient in recent weeks. The Nigerian international Ademola Lookman, who has been a stalwart for the Super Eagles, is expected to start on the left flank, bringing his speed and trickery to bear against the Genoa backline. The visitors, led by Alberto Gilardino, will be no pushovers; they have shown that they can hold their own against the big boys of Italian football, and they will be looking to claim the lion. �s share of the points on the road. Where to watch this Serie A encounter live on television is a matter that GoalZaza has confirmed for its readers. The match will be broadcast on GoalZaza and other local channels, ensuring that fans across Nigeria do not miss a moment of the action. At the end of the day, this fixture promises to be a battle of wits and will, with Atalanta desperate to return to winning ways and Genoa eager to spoil the party. The powers that be at GoalZaza will bring you all the post match analysis and exclusive updates from the pitch. For the fans gathered at viewing centres in Surulere and along the busy streets of Abuja, this match is the talk of the town. As the whistle blows, you can hear the collective gasp of the crowd when Lookman receives the ball, their voices rising in a chorus of approval for every dribble and shot. When the final score is read, whether in joy or disappointment, the discussions will spill onto the streets, with arguments over tactics and refereeing decisions lasting long into the night. It is the beautiful game, lived with passion from Lagos to Kaduna.
