However, La Dea have only won two of their seven league matches this season, recording five draws to leave them with in eighth-place, five points behind league leaders AC Milan, who have 16 points.

Reigning African footballer of the year winner Ademola Lookman missed the first few matches of the season for Atalanta, but has been reintegrated into the squad.
The Nigerian forward is still in search of his first goal of the season, but could trouble the Cremonese backline with his efficient dribbling and pace.
