LLWWDW

Atalanta are hoping to win again following the 0-4 Serie A victory over Monza.

In that game, Atalanta managed 48% possession and 15 shots on goal with 5 on target. For Atalanta, goals were scored by Charles De Ketelaere (12', 23'), Ademola Lookman (47') and Marco Brescianini (88'). On the other side, Monza had 13 shots at goal with 7 on target.

Their latest results show that not much more can be done by the Atalanta backline. Atalanta have been mean at the back, with the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their previous six clashes standing at 3.

Their prior results show that Atalanta:

• haven't lost in the league to Roma in their last 5 matches.
• are unbeaten in their previous 2 league matches at home.

Roma

WDDWWW 📈

Roma will go into this clash following on from a 1-0 Serie A win to defeat Fiorentina in their last outing.

In that match, Roma had 41% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. The scorer for Roma was Artem Dovbyk (45'). At the other end, Fiorentina got 12 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target.

A run of reliable performances by the Roma defensive unit has resulted in the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 2 from their past 6 outings in total. Over that same time, their own attack force has managed to score 6. That being said, it remains to be seen if that pattern shall be replicated in this upcoming game.

Taking a look at their past results, Roma:

• have not won against Atalanta in games played away from home for the previous 2 league games.
• have not been beaten in their last 9 league matches away from home. What a good run they have put together.

📰 Team News: Atalanta

Marco Palestra (Hamstring strain), Giorgio Scalvini (Shoulder injury), Gianluca Scamacca (Hamstring injury), Juan Cuadrado (Hamstring muscle injury) and Sead Kolasinac (Cruciate ligament tear) won’t be able to feature for Atalanta boss Gian Gasperini.

It looks as if La Dea could go for a 3-4-2-1 system featuring Marco Carnesecchi, Marten de Roon, Berat Djimsiti, Odilon Kossounou, Raoul Bellanova, Ederson, Mario Pasalic, Davide Zappacosta, Charles De Ketelaere, Marco Brescianini and Mateo Retegui.

ℹ️ Team News: Roma

Roma manager Claudio Ranieri has not got a full squad to pick from. Lorenzo Pellegrini (Hamstring strain) and Paulo Dybala (Tendon rupture) will not be playing here.

It’s our belief that i Giallorossi will likely begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation using Mile Svilar, Mehmet Zeki Celik, Gianluca Mancini, Evan N'Dicka, Matias Soule, Bryan Cristante, Kouadio Kone, Niccolo Pisilli, Angelino, Artem Dovbyk and Eldor Shomurodov.

⚡ Prediction

We’re envisaging that Roma will have to work hard as a team to score against this Atalanta side who should just have the edge.

With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a 1-0 advantage for Atalanta after 90 minutes.

Hopefully it’s a good one.
