An Atalanta BC side playing themselves into form ahead of the new year welcome bottom-of-the-table Salernitana to the Gewiss Stadium on Monday in Serie A.
Gian Piero Gasperini's side recorded a famous win over AC Milan last weekend, before shining again in Europe with a heavily-rotated side.
That 3-2 over Milan was as dramatic as it was important, given Atalanta's form prior, and then a youthful side travelled to Poland and thrashed European debutants Rakow Czestochowa 4-0 on Thursday.
It has been a great week for Luis Muriel in particular; so often a fringe player, the Colombian came to the forefront, scoring the 95th-minute winner against the Rossoneri, before netting twice in midweek.
That league success leaves the race for the top four incredibly competitive heading into 2024, with La Dea on 23 points in eighth, but just two points separating them and fourth-placed Roma.
