ATALANTA
Manager: Gian Piero Gasperini
Key Arrivals: Kolasinac (Marseille), Adopo (Torino), Bakker (Leverkusen)
Key Departures: Sportiello (Milan), Lammers (Rangers), Cittadini (Monza)
Prediction: After astonishing seasons, which saw them reach a Champions League quarter-final, Atalanta may have returned to their “proper level”. They were still good enough to finish fifth and qualify for the Europa League last season. With Gasperini still in charge, expect another good campaign.
BOLOGNA
Manager: Thiago Motta
Key Arrivals: Moro (Dynamo Moscow), Beukema (AZ), Posch (Hoffenheim), El Azzouzi (Union SG)
Key Departures: Kasius (AZ)
Prediction: Bologna had an excellent season last time around, finishing comfortably mid-table. Not surprisingly, Motta was given the job full-time. The big question is whether the Canadian owners will settle for a mid-table finish again or be more ambitious.
CAGLIARI
Manager: Claudio Ranieri
Sulemana (Verona), Scuffet (CFR Cluj),
