Atalanta and Roma Clash in Champions League Showdown

Bergamo, Italy – On Monday, May 12, 2025, Atalanta will host Roma at Gewiss Stadium for a crucial Serie A match. With both teams vying for a spot in the Champions League, this match carries significant weight.
Atalanta enters the match with aspirations of securing third place in the league. Currently, they are positioned behind Juventus and Lazio. A victory would mathematically cement their position ahead of Juventus by a seven-point lead, providing a substantial advantage as the season nears its end.
Roma, on the other hand, sits in fourth place and aims to ascend to their highest rank this season. They have displayed impressive form with a streak of 19 unbeaten matches following a rough start. However, they will have to cope without their captain, Lorenzo Pellegrini, who is sidelined due to a muscle injury.
Head coach Claudio Ranieri will replace Pellegrini with young talent Pisilli in a 3-5-2 formation. The attacking duo will consist of Artem Dovbyk and Eldor Shomurodov. Meanwhile, Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini will adjust his lineup as well, bringing in Toloi to replace the suspended Hein. They will start with a 3-4-3 formation featuring a frontline led by Retegui, Lookman, and De Ketelaere.
The match is set to kick off at 20:45 local time and will be broadcast live on Dazn. Fans can access the match through smart TVs, gaming consoles, or mobile devices. As both teams battle for crucial points, the stakes could not be higher.
