Player(s) to watch:
- Mateo Retegui is having a great season in the Serie A this time around. He has 31 goal involvements in 33 Serie games in the ongoing season. Retegui is going to play an important role in the attacking front for Atalanta. He looks in good touch and will cause serious issues for the opponent’s defence.
- Artem Dovbyk will be leading the attacking front for Giallorossi yet again. He is not in the best form, which might make it difficult for the visitors to score against Atalanta. Dovbyk will be looking to step up here as it is an important game for Roma. The 27-year-old has 14 goal contributions in 31 Italian league games this season.
