Prediction: 1-1
AS Roma
A spot in the Champions League will be at stake when Atalanta and AS Roma square off against each other at Gewiss Stadium on Sunday evening. The Orobici came from behind to beat rock-bottom Salernitana on Monday, with the team moving one step closer towards the Champions League, but their job is not done yet. Both Teun Koopmeiners and Charles De Ketelaere are pushing for a start, while all Sead Kolasinac, Rafael Toloi, and Emil Holm remain in the recovery room.
The Giallorossi, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Juventus. The capital club have a chance to climb to the Champions League berth, but beating Atalanta in Bergamo is easier said than accomplished. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Daniele De Rossi has a luxury to field the best possible side against the Orobici.
