Atalanta vs AS Roma Preview
Roma’s form in recent weeks has been impressive, and they will be buoyed by a miraculous midweek success. Though it took a late equalizer and two further goals in extra time, Roma squeezed through to the Europa League semi-finals on Thursday, by overturning a first-leg deficit against Feyenoord and booking a last-four date with Bayer Leverkusen next month. The Eredivisie leaders had their European dreams ended by Jose Mourinho’s men for a second season running – Roma came out on top in last year’s Europa Conference League final – as Paulo Dybala’s introduction from the bench played a huge role in turning the tie on its head.
On the other hand, Atalanta has struggled in recent weeks, and their form has been inconsistent. After wins over Serie A strugglers Empoli and Cremonense, La Dea had gone down 2-0 at home to Bologna in their previous fixture, and last week they were held to a draw by Fiorentina. As a result of this stumble, plus Juve’s reprieve, they now occupy seventh spot in the standings. They could, therefore, be facing a second straight season without European football, having collected just 14 points across 11 matches in the second half of the season.

Head-to-Head and Other Stats
The head-to-head record between these two teams is intriguing, with AS Roma having a good recent record against Atalanta. Roma has won 20 out of the last 42 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Atalanta’s 13 victories. Roma has won only three of their last 16 matches against Atalanta in the Serie A but did secure a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture.
AS Roma won their previous game at the Gewiss Stadium by a 4-1 scoreline and have not won consecutive away games against Atalanta since 2001. Atalanta has been a better team in the second half of the season in all their campaigns under Gian Piero Gasperini in the Serie A. AS Roma has kept nine clean sheets in the Serie A in 2023 – Barcelona is the only team in the top five leagues to have a better record during this period.

Atalanta vs AS Roma Prediction
Based on recent form, we predict that AS Roma will come out on top in this fixture, securing a crucial three points that could help them in their quest for a top-four finish. Roma’s total of nine victories without conceding in 2023 is a record equaled only by city rivals Lazio and champions-elect Napoli. In short, Mourinho’s men know how to get the job done.
Atalanta’s struggles in front of goal have been a concern, and with just one goal scored in their last two games, they will need to be at their best to break down a resilient Roma defense.
