Atalanta-Roma, a Champions League challenge

In Monday night scheduled for tomorrow evening at 20.45pm at the Gewiss Stadium arrives Rome: Goddess third at 68 points, Lupa sixth at 63, behind Juventus and Lazio, who played yesterday, at 64. For the black and whites and the white and sky blues it will be impossible to exceed 70 points, the same goes for the yellow and reds in the event of a draw in Bergamo. Therefore if Atalanta were to draw tomorrow night win would arithmetically Champions and also third place, another prestigious achievement. In case of draw the Goddess would still celebrate, having 5 points of advantage with two days to go on the various pursuers: a draw in the last two games, in Genoa, or at home against Parma, would be enough to close the discussion.

Rome arrives in Bergamo after a very long series of deighteen consecutive useful results iin Serie A, with 31 goals scored and only 9 conceded, with a comeback from the relegation zone to the Europa League: by winning at Gewiss the Giallorossi would seriously mortgage fourth place, otherwise they would be forced into a risky three-way sprint. Gasperini's team has the r on its siderecent tradition: 2-0 victory in December at the Olimpico with goals from De Roon and former player Zaniolo. And two consecutive victories in the last two home games played curiously always in May, against the Giallorossi of Mourinho and De Rossi.

Many the exes: Toloi among the Bergamo players (in Urbe in 2014-15), the various Cristante, Gollini and Mancini among the Capitoline players. A challenge within a challenge between the two masters of the benches, Gian Piero Gasperini and Claudio Ranieri: in recent years Gasp has almost always won, even if last spring 'Sir Claudio's' Cagliari was the only team to beat the Goddess between March and May.
