Atalanta

Atalanta have a commanding head-to-head record against AS Roma, winning six of the last ten meetings between the sides and losing only twice. Furthermore, Atalanta have avoided defeat in four of their last five trips to the Stadio Olimpico, recording two wins and two draws. Roma are missing influential personnel in Lorenzo Pellegrini and Evan Ndicka, which diminishes their midfield control and defensive depth. Atalanta enter this fixture in solid form having conceded just once in their opening two league matches, providing them with a strong foundation to secure at least a point.

Atalanta enter this clash in positive form after securing a 2-1 home win against Sassuolo in their season opener. In contrast, Bologna are on a three-match losing streak across all fixtures and failed to score in their 1-0 opening defeat against Lazio. While Bologna have won five of the last ten meetings between the teams, Atalanta have demonstrated stronger early-season rhythm. Given that 80 percent of the past ten head-to-head fixtures stayed below 2.5 goals and both teams scored in only 30 percent of those games, a closely contested matchup favoring the home side to earn at least a point represents the most probable scenario.

The previous meeting between these two sides on 20 August 2026 concluded in a 0-0 draw, showcasing a disciplined defensive approach from Hapoel Tel Aviv. While Atalanta possess quality across the squad, injuries to key players including I. Hien and K. Sulemana reduce their offensive edge away from home. Backing Atalanta or Draw alongside Under 2.5 goals provides a well-calibrated position reflecting both sides' defensive records.

Atalanta have won four of their last five home head-to-head encounters against Sassuolo. In contrast, Sassuolo arrive heavily depleted by injuries to key personnel including Domenico Berardi and Andrea Pinamonti, while having conceded nine goals across their last five matches.
