Match preview

Atalanta head into this crucial tie fully aware that their hopes of qualifying for Europe through Serie A are fading, making the Coppa Italia their primary route to salvaging the season. A recent 1-1 draw with Roma cost them valuable ground in the league, while their attacking output has been underwhelming — they’ve scored more than once in just one of their last seven matches.

That said, their cup form tells a different story. In the Coppa Italia, Atalanta have been far more clinical, scoring nine goals across three games. There’s also optimism on the squad front, with several key players close to returning, which should boost both depth and tactical options for this decisive encounter.

Lazio arrive with renewed confidence after a solid 2-0 win over Napoli, bouncing back from less convincing results against Parma (1-1) and Fiorentina (0-1). Despite that, their overall league campaign has lacked consistency, leaving the Coppa Italia as their clearest path to European qualification.

The visitors also face some selection concerns, particularly in goal, which could prove decisive in a high-pressure match. Historically, trips to Bergamo have been difficult for Lazio, who have rarely managed to impose themselves in this fixture.

Probable lineups

Atalanta: Carnesecchi, Kolašinac, Djimsiti, Scalvini, Zappacosta, Ederson, de Roon, Bellanova, Raspadori, De Ketelaere, Krstović

Lazio: Motta, Gila, Romagnoli, Lazzari, Tavares, Bašić, Cataldi, Taylor, Cancelleri, Zaccagni, Noslin
