There’s no overstating the significance of today’s clash against Atalanta. With some favorable outcomes from other matches, a win for Roma would position them in fourth place on the league table, offering them a comforting two-point lead! Although a draw wouldn’t be catastrophic, triumphing over Atalanta would firmly establish Roma as frontrunners for the league’s fourth and coveted Champions League spot with just two games remaining.
However, today’s match remains a pivotal hurdle. Gian Piero Gasperini’s team rarely offers any respite to the Giallorossi, yet no squad currently matches the fiery momentum of Roma. With a formidable 19-match unbeaten run, Claudio Ranieri’s team has consistently found victory, scraping through with a series of gritty 1-0 wins over the last few weeks.
The lineups are set, so let’s dive into the action!
