Roma vs Atalanta: High-Stakes Clash in Serie A

Roma and Atalanta meet on April 18, 2026, in a crucial Serie A encounter at Stadio Olimpico. This match could determine their chances for European qualification.

Currently, Roma sits three points behind fourth-placed Juventus. They recently secured a 3-0 victory over Pisa, with Donyell Malen scoring a hat-trick.

In contrast, Atalanta lost their last match 1-0 to Juventus. They have not won against Roma in seven meetings since March 2022.

Roma has alternated between wins and losses in their last four league outings. They have kept an impressive 14 clean sheets this season.

Atalanta has struggled away from home, winning only two of their last ten matches across all competitions. They have scored one goal or fewer in four consecutive away games against Roma.

Injuries plague both squads. Roma’s list includes Paulo Dybala, Manu Koné, and Lorenzo Pellegrini, while Atalanta is missing Isak Hien and Kamaldeen Sulemana.

This matchup is significant for Gian Piero Gasperini—his emotional press conference hinted at his departure after nine years with Atalanta.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the final lineups as kick-off approaches at 19:45 UK time (20:45 CEST). Expect another low-scoring affair given the stakes involved.
