AS Roma vs Atalanta Prediction (05.09.2026)

Roma certainly impresses in their first matches of the new season in Serie A, having recorded two victories in the first two rounds, both with a score of 4:0. Now the team will host Atalanta, who also started the campaign positively with two victories, albeit minimal ones. Additionally, we can mention the elimination of Apoel Tel Aviv in the Conference League and reaching the group stage of the tournament.

Additional intrigue comes from the coaching clash, as Roma's current coach Gian Piero Gasperini led Atalanta for many years. Roma has shown extremely attacking football since the beginning of the season, while the guests also demonstrate a sufficiently good form, although so far their style seems more defensive. However, Atalanta has the necessary qualities to at least challenge the opponent and seek a goal.

I expect an interesting and high-scoring match, where the threshold of 2.5 goals also seems completely achievable. My main prediction, however, is for a victory for Roma. The hosts started the season impressively, and considering their performance in the first two rounds, I give them the advantage against Atalanta.
