Roma — Atalanta. On the eve

As part of the third round of the Italian Serie A-2026/27 in the capital, local Roma will host Atalanta. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 9:45 p.m. STADIUM OLYMPICO, ROME. CHIEF ARBITRATOR — ANDREA COLOMBO. LIVE ON MEGOGO Roma started the new championship campaign with two identical victories (4:0). After the home match against Fiorentina, Gian Piero Gasperini's team expectedly dealt with Lecce on the road. Donyell Malen, who was purchased in the summer, made a noticeable contribution to these successes of the Giallorossi, who completed the hat trick completed in the first round with a double on Monday. Roma fans will be hoping that the rookie's impressive form can see them win their first win against Atalanta since March 2022. After the then minimal success in the capital (1:0), the Giallorossi have only avoided defeat against this opponent twice, while the Nerazzurri have celebrated winning three points six times. Maurizio Sarri's team will play their first away match in the new championship campaign, having previously beaten Sassuolo (2:1) and Bologna (1:0) in Bergamo. It is worth noting that at the Stadio Olimpico Atalanta have lost only one of their last 12 matches against Roma in Serie A (+5W, 6L), in particular avoiding defeat in the past four (2W, 2L). Nevertheless, today "nerazurri" is unlikely to be able to restrain the capital rival again, considering his current form. Bookmakers also have more faith in the home team. Yes, you can bet on their victory with a coefficient of 1.75, while the potential success of the guests is estimated at an indicator of 4.91.
