Lazio

Biancocelesti also go in the group of leaders of the current Italian championship, but still the team is hardly claiming the highest places. This was confirmed by the recent match against Inter. Romans, playing at home, received six unanswered goals in their gates - a defeat without any chance of success.

In the next round after this failure Lazio managed to rehabilitate - away against Lecce, although in this match, too, the Biancocelesti did not do without problems. The opponents played in the minority from the end of the first half, but Lazio were able to press them only in the end - on 87 minutes Adam Marusic scored the winning goal. 2:1 - the Romans are fourth in the Serie A standings and are six points behind first place.

As for other tournaments, everything is going well for Lazio so far. In the Italian Cup Baroni's wards reached the quarterfinals, beating Napoli (3:1), and in the Europa League they are leading the table of 36 teams after six rounds.

Atalanta

The Bergamaschi have perhaps not been as strong as they have been this season since reaching the quarterfinals of the Champions League in a covid year. It is important to note that players from that squad are now all but gone at Atalanta, so Gian Piero Gasperini has once again effectively built a top project from scratch.

In the previous round Atalanta showed character, in the most difficult game squeezed out at home field Empoli. The score remained tied until the 86th minute, when Charles de Ketela scored the winning goal

In the Italian Cup, Atalanta, like Lazio, reached the quarterfinals. On its field Bergamo beat 6:1 Cesena. In the Champions League, Bergamaschi are 13th after six rounds and two points behind the top-8.
