AC Milan make a short journey to the north on Sunday as they face near neighbours Atalanta in Serie A. The Rossoneri kicked off their title defence last week with a 4-2 victory over Udinese and can ensure they are among the early pace-setters with another win this week in Bergamo.
Atalanta also won on the opening weekend of the new season as they emerged as victors in a 2-0 triumph over Sampdoria and will surely prove a tough test for the San Siro outfit.
