Match Preview – 14:00 Kick-Off at Stadio Olimpico, Rome

After a sticky beginning to March, Roma have recovered well and have won 6 games on the spin in all competitions. The Giallorossi, who occupy 2nd place in Serie A, have kept 3 clean sheets in a row. Luciano Spalletti’s men have only lost once at home in the league all season. Leading scorer Edin Dzeko has bagged 5 in his last 6 games.

Atalanta are enjoying an unexpectedly great season – they have lost just once in their last 10. In that defeat, they were trounced 7-1 by Inter Milan. That result was a dark speck in what’s been the brightest of bright patches for La Dea. Atalanta sit in 5th spot in Serie A, just a point off Lazio who occupy the last Champions League place.

In the reverse fixture between the pair, the last minute Franck Kessie penalty turned 1 point into 3 for Atalanta. Read our detailed prediction and Roma vs Atalanta betting tips below.

Roma vs Atalanta Predictions

Recently, both these sides have come with a guarantee of goals. There have been over 2.5 goals in 4 out of 5 of both Roma’s and Atalanta’s respective last fixtures. Roma have won all but 1 of their home games this season, however, so while goals are likely, a home win is just as feasible. William Hill have even odds for Roma to win the game with over 3 goals scored in the contest – that seems too good a price to turn down. Bosnia-Herzegovina hitman Edin Dzeko has been banging in goals on a regular basis this season, UniBet have odds of 24/25 for him to get another one on Saturday.
