The Orobici are in their first continental competition for 26 years after finishing fourth in Serie A last season and want to continue amazing everyone.

They destroyed Everton 3-0 in Bergamo for the opening group game and now visit Lyon, a side usually accustomed to the Champions League.

The hosts, who knocked Roma out of the Europa League last season on their way to the semi-final, were surprisingly held 1-1 by Apollon Limassol thanks to a last-gasp equaliser.

That means Atalanta are currently top of the group and only missing Rafael Toloi due to injury.

Leonardo Spinazzola gets his second consecutive start, while Andrea Petagna partners Papu Gomez.

Memphis Depay is rested in favour of Houssem Aouar, but Nabil Fekir does start after admitting he’d never heard of Atalanta.

Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa certainly has, because he played for Roma in a 1-1 draw with the Bergamo boys in 2014-15.

Lyon have won their last four European home fixtures and are unbeaten in six here, but their record against Italian clubs is eight wins, five draws and nine losses.
