Raoul Bellanova - Solid in the back versus Roma Bellanova created one scoring chance and had eight clerncs, two interceptions and two blocks and one takcle (Zero won) in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Roma.

Impact Bellanova drew his first start of the season over Davide Zappacosta and racked up defensive stats as he was under pressure, while he had to limit his runs on the other end because of the difficult matchup. Both have gotten opportunities early, considering that Atalanta also played in the Conference League playoff. He has logged just 12 minutes in his previous appearance, recording one block.

Charles De Ketelaere - Creates two chances against Roma De Ketelaere had one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and two chances created and won two of two tackles in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Roma.

Impact De Ketelaere was the main fulcrum for his side, which didn't muster a lot of offense in this one, but he didn't pile up stats and is having a subdued start to the season. He played the whole game for the first time after dealing with an early thigh issue. He has created at least one chance in three consecutive displays, amassing four and registering four tackles (all won), two crosses (two accurate) and one off-target shot over that span.

Lazar Samardzic - Mostly silent in Roma fixture Samardzic created one scoring chance and registered one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Roma.

Impact Samardzic drew the nod after delivering off the bench in the previous game, but while he picked up stats across the board, he wasn't particularly effective. He has seen a healthy dose of minutes in the Conference League and will split duties with Mario Pasalic and Frank Kessie going forward. He has registered one shot (one total on target) and one corner (two accurate) in all three games, also posting three key passes, two corners and four tackles (two won).

Giorgio Scalvini - Posts eight clearances in Roma tilt Scalvini registered three tackles (two won), one block and eight clearances in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Roma.

Impact Scalvini was under intense pressure and responded well for the most part, tallying a new season high in clearances, but Atalanta didn't hold up for the whole game and gave up two late goals. He has notched at least one clearance in three straight outings, totaling 12 and adding five tackles (four won) and two blocks, with one clean sheet.

Ederson Silva - Strikes in Roma contest Ederson scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target) and one clearance and drew one foul in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Roma.

Impact Ederson didn't have a particularly noteworthy performance but was at the right place at the right time to smash home a ball that was lingering in the box on a counter, bagging his first goal of the season. He has registered one clearance in three games in a row, adding three shots (all on target), two tackles (one won) and two interceptions.

Thomas Kristensen - DNP in Roma game Kristensen (ankle) wasn't fielded in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Roma.

Impact Kristensen shook off an ankle injury, but the coach stuck with Odilon Kossounou and Giorgio Scalvini for the whole game. He could unseat the former once he's fully healthy and accustomed to his new surroundings following a summer transfer.

Marco Carnesecchi - Falters late in Roma clash Carnesecchi recorded nine saves and three clearances and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Roma.

Impact Carensecchi recorded a new season high in saves and pulled off several massive ones, but he could have likely done more on the two goals, as he was surprised by the trajectory of a header by Mario Hermoso, and Matias Soule beat him on the near post. He has kept one clean sheet, made 19 saves and given up three goals so far. Up next, Atalanta will host Cagliari on Saturday.

Gianluca Gaetano - Sees red in Roma clash Gaetano registered one tackle (one won), three clearances and one interception in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Roma and was sent off in the 97th minute.

Impact Gaetano had a routine performance in the midfield, not picking up a lot of stats on either end, and was sanctioned after the final whistle for arguing with the referee. He'll be unavailable for at least next Saturday's home game versus Cagliari. Franck Kessie or Mario Pasalic will replace him in the XI.

Thomas Kristensen - Likely for Roma fixture Kristensen (ankle) "was able to resume training regularly this week," coach Maurizio Sarri announced.

Impact Kristensen is poised to return after missing time, as he rolled his ankle in his Atalanta debut in the UEFA Conference League. He'll likely be behind Odilon Kossounou and Giorgio Scalvini in the pecking order at first. He starred in 28 matches for Udinese last year, helping secure nine clean sheets and tallying 198 clearances, 25 interceptions and 26 tackles.

Giorgio Scalvini - Strong defensively in clean sheet Scalvini recorded two tackles (two won), three clearances and one interception in Monday's 1-0 victory versus Bologna.

Impact Scalvini dealt well with sustained pressure as Atalanta kept a clean sheet despite Bologna controlling much of the game. The centre-back finished with three clearances, two tackles and one interception across the full 90 minutes. He has now started all four of Atalanta's competitive matches this season, including both legs of the Conference League playoff, with this marking his third clean sheet in those games.

Marco Carnesecchi - Keeps clean sheet with big saves Carnesecchi registered three saves and allowed zero goals in Monday's 1-0 win versus Bologna.

Impact Carnesecchi was instrumental in keeping the scoreline level before Lazar Samardzic broke the deadlock, producing two crucial stops and three saves in total behind a defence that struggled to contain Bologna for long periods, with the visitors dominating possession, carrying much the greater threat and striking the woodwork before Atalanta survived to win it at the death. The goalkeeper claimed his first league clean sheet of the season in the process, his third across all competitions in his last four games, and he has started every match under Maurizio Sarri with no competition for the shirt. His next test will come Saturday against Roma.

Lazar Samardzic - Scores winner off bench Samardzic scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Monday's 1-0 victory versus Bologna.

Impact Samardzic missed out on a starting role to Mario Pasalic but made an immediate impact after coming off the bench with the game still goalless and Atalanta struggling to create. The midfielder rescued one of the team's poorest performances in recent memory, scoring the winner with his only shot of the game from long-range. He did not start either of Atalanta's first two league games but was in the lineup for both legs of the Conference League qualification playoffs.

Nicola Zalewski - Assists winner off bench Zalewski assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Monday's 1-0 win over Bologna.

Impact Zalewski came off the bench in this outing after starting all three of Atalanta's opening competitive games in the Conference League qualification playoff and the league opener. He made a meaningful impact in his cameo, making four interceptions and taking two shots before capping his appearance with an assist for Lazar Samradzic's winning goal in stoppage time.

Jon Rowe - Transfers to Atalanta Rowe has been dealt to Atalanta on loan with a conditional obligation to buy from Bologna.

Impact Rowe asked out in the last few days after registering seven goals, four assists, 70 shots (22 on target) and 82 crosses in 40 appearances in his first season in Serie A, making the leap compared to his time at Olympique Marseille. He's a purer option than Giacomo Raspadori, Nicola Zalewski and Elijf Elmas, who have been playing on the left wing to open the season.

Honest Ahanor - Agrees deal with Chelsea Ahanor has agreed a deal to join Chelsea from Atalanta, with the move officially completing in 2027, according to the club.

Impact Ahanor made 35 appearances for Atalanta last season, his first campaign there after arriving from Genoa in July 2025, and his strong form earned him his first two senior caps for Italy in June. The 18 year old defender's move sets up a future addition to Chelsea's back line once the transfer is completed.
