AS Roma vs. Atalanta Betting Tips 05/03/2022

Benson Chikezie, Senior Author

The famous Stadio Olimpico will be the venue as AS Roma host Atalanta in Round 28 of the Italian Serie A. The game kicks off by 22:30 IST on the 5th of March, 2022, and promises to be a fantastic encounter between two talented sides.

AS Roma sit 6th on the table after 27 games and hope to continue their return to winning ways with a victory over Atalanta. After a 4-0 win at home to Sampdoria, Atalanta travel to Rome knowing that a win will see them keep the pressure on Juventus in the race to a Champions League spot.

Teams Status

Here is the latest form and team news on AS Roma and Atalanta:

AS Roma Form and Team News

Jose Mourinho’s return to the Serie A has not exactly gone as planned, and his Roma side have endured a mixed run of results all season. They remain unbeaten in their last 5 league games, winning 2 and drawing 3.

They occupy the final European place in the league, and will fancy a late challenge for a Champions League spot as they are just 6 points behind Juventus who are in the 4th position. Roma have recorded 13 wins, 5 draws, and 9 losses in 27 league games, and scored 45 goals, conceding another 34. Former Chelsea man, Tammy Abraham is their top scorer with 12 goals and 3 assists all season.

For Roma’s team news, Sergio Oliveira and Ghanaian whiz kid Felix Afena-Gyan will miss Atalanta’s visit as they are currently injured.

Atalanta Form and Team News

Atalanta’s 4-nil victory over Sampdoria halted a 4-match winless run in the league— 2 draws and 2 losses. Their return to winning ways was in no measure crucial, as they will face a stern test in their match away to Roma, who they are only 3 points above on the league standings.

They have a game in hand over Roma, and have managed 47 points in 26 games this season. In 13 wins, 8 draws, and 5 losses, they have scored 50 goals and conceded 30. Mario Pasalic leads the scoring charts for Atalanta with 9 goals and 5 assists this season.

Atalanta will be without Jose Luis Palomino, Duvan Zapata, Josip Ilicic, Luis Muriel, and Aleksey Miranchuk for the trip to Rome as they are currently injured.

Tipster’s Angle

Atalanta and AS Roma have been entertaining to watch all season, and both teams consider themselves good enough to play Champions League football next season. While the reverse fixture early in the season ended in a 4-1 victory for AS Roma, there is a lot more at stake this time around. Here are our tips for this fixture:

Tip: Both Teams To Score @ 1.64

An interesting tip, but over the years, this fixture has seen goals from both teams more often than not. From their head to head record, in the past 10 meetings between these two sides, only in two games have both teams failed to score.

An 8/10 outcome is a likely one, hence we expect the trend to continue in this encounter. Both teams to score is available on the Melbet sportsbook at 1.64 odds.

Tip: Over 1.5 Goals @ 1.25

In recent times, AS Roma vs. Atalanta has always recorded multiple goals. Over their last 10 meetings, they only failed to score multiple goals on one occasion.

With both teams returning to winning ways recently and with a lot at stake coming into this game, we expect to see more than one goal scored. Over 1.5 goals is available on the Parimatch sportsbook at 1.25 odds.

Conclusion

AS Roma vs. Atalanta is another juicy Serie A fixture for the weekend. The reverse fixture lived up to its billing and with European places on the line this time, we expect a match with great chances for both teams to go home with all three points.
