Roma VS Atalanta live preview Serie A
Roma:
The Giallorossi made a successful start to the new year, bouncing back from their 1-0 league defeat to Juventus last Saturday. However, despite progressing in both the Coppa Italia and Europa League, they face a challenge in securing a top-four spot in Serie A. Currently sitting seventh in the standings, just behind Fiorentina and Bologna, Roma has experienced difficulties against other top teams. Notably, their recent defeats have occurred away from Rome, but their home form has been strong, earning 19 points and conceding only three goals in their last seven Serie A matches at Stadio Olimpico.
Atalanta:
Similar to Roma, Atalanta has advanced in European and domestic cup competitions, but they find themselves outside Serie A's top four. Despite a recent improvement in form with three wins in their last four league matches, they face the challenge of overcoming their recent struggles away from home, having lost their last two away games without scoring. Additionally, Atalanta must navigate these fixtures without the services of Ademola Lookman and aim to secure positive results against Roma and Milan within a short timeframe.
Analysis:
While Roma may not be the most exciting team to watch, they have shown an ability to secure results on their home turf. Atalanta, despite facing challenges on the road this season, can rely on their improved form to withstand the home team's pressure and secure at least a point, which would keep them positioned above Roma in the Serie A table.
