Luca Ranieri - Trending positively for Juventus game Ranieri (foot) "will train fully Saturday, and we hope he'll make the bench against Juventus on Sunday," coach Paolo Vanoli announced.

Impact Ranieri is on the verge of recovering from a pinched nerve and should resume being available after sitting out for months, barring a late setback. He's a long shot to start, though. Ranieri has started four times so far, registering 15 clearances, four tackles (one won) and three interceptions, with no clean sheets.

Luca Ranieri - Will miss another one Ranieri (foot) "has yet to recover," coach Paolo Vanoli announced.

Impact Ranier will skip his fourth contest in a row because of a foot injury, paving the way for Viery and Radu Dragusin to get the nod again, as Marin Pongracic (thigh) is also on the shelf.

Cher Ndour - Contributes on both ends against Atalanta Ndour won two of three tackles and had two off-target shtos, three interceptions and one clearance in Thursday's 2-2 draw against Atalanta.

Impact Ndour made his presence felt in both phases and especially defensively, notching new season highs in tackles and interceptions, but it wasn't enough to properly contain the opponents. He maintained his season-long streak of performances with one or more tackles, totaling 14 (nine won) so far. Furthermore, this marked his fourth outing on the trot with at least one shot, for a total of seven (two on target), and his seventh straight with one or more clearances (12 total).

Mateo Pellegrino - Quiet again versus Atalanta Pellegrino had two shots (zero on goal), one tackle (zero won) and one chance created and drew one foul in Thursday's 2-2 draw against Atalanta.

Impact Pellegrino saw almost full minutes for the third game in a row but didn't do a lot again and could lose playing time to Beto if he doesn't start producing. He has gone scoreless in the last five matches. Pellegrino has created at least one chance in six straight fixtures. Additionally, this was his fourth straight display with one or more shots, for a total of six (two on target).

Franco Mastantuono - Lacks touch in Atalanta contest Mastantuono recorded four shots (zero on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and four corners and won three of six tackles in Thursday's 2-2 draw versus Atalanta.

Impact Mastantuono was lively as usual and had robust volume in the final third, but he wasn't precise both when trying to finish and with his deliveries. He has tallied one or more shots, amassing 33 (nine on target), and crosses, racking up 24 (six accurate) in all nine rounds. Furthermore, this marked his sixth match in a row with at least one key pass and one tackle, for a total of 15 and 17 (10 won), respectively.

Joao Mario - Finds the net in Atalanta game Mario scored one goal to go with five shots (two on target), three crosses (one accurate) and two clearances in Thursday's 2-2 draw versus Atalanta.

Impact Mario drew his first start in nearly two months and repaid the coach's trust by rifling it home from distance with the help of a deflection. Victor Valdepenas and Viery had manned the role in previous fixtures. Mario tallied a new season high in attempts. He has recorded at least one cross and one clearance in his last three appearances, piling up 10 (three accurate) and seven, respectively.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Alex Jimenez - Picks up assists in Atalanta clash Jimenez assisted once to go with four shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and four chances created in Thursday's 2-2 draw against Atalanta.

Impact Jimenez teed up Alieu Njie with a great delivery that just needed to be tucked home and set new season highs across the board on offense, pacing his side in key passes and crosses. He also tallied a new season high in tackles and has registered at least one in four straight games, amassing 13 (seven won), while also posting 13 crosses (three accurate) and six clearances in that stretch, with one goal and no clean sheets. Additionally, this was his third outing on the trot with one or more shots, for a total of six (one on target).

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

David De Gea - Concedes two goals versus Atalanta De Gea recorded three saves and allowed two goals in Thursday's 2-2 draw against Atalanta.

Impact De Gea had a few nice saves, but he was still beaten multiple times, which has been the case in all but one tilt so far, due to pretty strong finishes by Charles De Ketelaere and Nicola Zalewski. He has yet to keep a clean sheet and has made 33 saves and surrendered 21 goals in nine rounds. Up next, Fiorentina will visit Sassuolo on Monday.

Luca Ranieri - Doesn't make bench Thursday Ranieri (foot) is not on the bench for Thursday's match against Atalanta.

Impact Ranieri was expected to be out of this match, so his absence from the bench isn't much of a surprise. The defender will aim to return for Monday's game against Sassuolo or the Sunday, Nov. 8 meeting against Juventus, which is Atalanta's final game before the November international break.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Luca Ranieri - Questionable for Atalanta tilt Ranieri (foot) has only minor chances to be available Thursday, Corriere dello Sport informed.

Impact Ranieri continues to nurse a nagging foot injury and, while he could make a token appearance on the bench since Marin Pongracic (thigh) is missing, leaving Fiorentina depleted at the position, he's unlikely to play. Radu Dragusin and Viery are the only healthy center-backs at the moment.
