Bremer - Starting against Atalanta Bremer (calf) will feature in the starting XI versus Atalanta on Wednesday.

Impact Bremer will avoid missing any game action after being forced off in the 76th minute against Spezia on Saturday. While the central defender is far from an offensive dynamo, he should remain a target in the box heading into Wednesday's matchup and could offer sneaky-good fantasy value.

APRIL 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Rolando Mandragora - Will miss Atalanta game Mandragora has been ruled out for Wednesday's match versus Atalanta because he is feverish, Torino announced.

APRIL 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Bremer - Should be fine for Atalanta game Bremer avoided serious calf injuries and is expected to keep starting in Wednesday's match versus Atalanta, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

Impact Bremer left the last game early, but the tests ruled out strains and he was able to practice afterward.

He has logged seven tackles (one won), 11 interceptions, 30 clearances and five blocks in the last five games, with two clean sheets.

Impact Djidji worked his way back from a thigh injury and, while he put up good numbers relative to his playing time, he tackled an opponent in the box in the final minute, although the PK did not alter the result too much. He will be in contention to start in Wednesday's road game versus Atalanta. He has tallied 16 crosses (five accurate), 43 tackles, 33 interceptions and 48 clearances in 22 appearances, with four clean sheets.

APRIL 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Bremer - Subs off in Spezia game Bremer won one tackle, had four clearances and was booked in Saturday's 2-1 win over Spezia before leaving after 76 minutes due to a thigh ailment, coach Ivan Juric informed.

Impact Bremer had a pretty good showing before limping off, although he failed to log any interception, which is generally his forte. The coach sounded optimistic the problem was not serious in the post-game remarks, but the short turnaround puts him in question for Wednesday's away game versus Atalanta. Koffi Djidji returned in this one and could replace him if he was unable to start.

APRIL 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Etrit Berisha - On bench for Spezia game Berisha will not start in Saturday's match versus Spezia because he battled a fever in the lead-up of the game, Sky Italy reports.

Impact Berisha managed to make the squad list, but Vanja Milinkovic-Savic will return on goal after being demoted lately and will have an opportunity to win back the starting job if he shows well.

Koffi Djidji - Called up for Spezia match Djidji (thigh) has been named in Torino's squad list to face Spezia Saturday.

He has posted 43 tackles, 31 interceptions, 44 clearances and eight blocks in 21 appearances, with four clean sheets.

APRIL 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Armando Izzo - Will miss Spezia match Izzo (thigh) was not included in Torino's squad list to face Spezia Saturday.

Impact Izzo is dealing with a thigh issue and will miss at least one game. The short turnaround puts him in question also for the following one. Koffi Djidji (thigh) is available after an injury in this one, but David Zima could get the nod.

APRIL 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tommaso Pobega - Ruled out for Spezia game Pobega (ankle) was not named in Torino's squad list to face Spezia Saturday.

APRIL 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Armando Izzo - Questionable for Spezia game Izzo has been limited by a small thigh issue in recent days, Sky Italy informs.

Impact Izzo will be a late call and would be a long shot to start even if he managed to be available. David Zima will likely fill in for Koffi Djidji in the back in this one.

APRIL 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Dennis Praet - Will return versus Spezia Praet (foot) resumed practicing this week and responded well, so he could see some minutes in Saturday's match against Spezia, coach Ivan Juric announced.

Impact Praet was expected to miss the rest of the season after fracturing his foot in mid-February, but he has recovered quickly. He will be eased into action, but he was the top option in his position before the injury. His return will impact Tommaso Pobega and Samuele Ricci's playing time. He has posted two goals, one assist, 18 shots (seven on target) and 19 chances in 18 appearances (13 starts).
