The career record of the yellow-reds’ coach against Orobici and Gasperini is indeed favorable.

Claudio Ranieri and Roma have once again sent signals from London. The result with Tottenham has been encouraging, both for the opponent, and for the manner in which it was achieved, arguably, thanks to all-positive and assertive performances, full of heart and soul. While the rankings in the Europa League remain tight, the situation in Serie A is sportingly catastrophic. Indeed, Roma has been overtaken, albeit temporarily, even by Cagliari, and now the third-last spot is just three points away. Not the most promising conditions to face potentially the strongest team in Europe, Gasperini’s Atalanta. Ranieri will have to cling to the response from Tottenham Stadium and perhaps count on a tradition which is somewhat favourable against the Goddess and the Friulian coach. The record of the Testaccio coach against the Orobici stands at 12 wins, 9 draws, and only 5 defeats in 26 total matches. And none of these knockouts came at the helm of the Roma team (only two intersections). Even though since 2011, in eight matches against Atalanta, they have only won twice, including the last showdown: Cagliari-Atalanta 2-1 on April 7. The record against Gasperini is also good, with 7 victories and 4 losses along with 1 draw. Even here, on the yellow-red bench, two victories out of two against Gasp.
