The Latest AS Roma News
Former Roma defender Sebino Nela has revealed that he thinks Roma and Atalanta are the favourites to finish fourth in Serie A this season.
Nela made a total of 397 appearances for Roma across an 11-year spell, and was part of the only Giallorossi side to ever reach the European Cup final. And the 58-year-old believes more memorable European nights could be in store for Roma next season. Asked by Centro Suono Sport to predict who will finish fourth in the league and thus secure Italy's last Champions League spot for next season, Nela said: "Roma and Atalanta are the favourites for fourth place. Milan are struggling a lot and in the next round they will have a difficult engagement against Torino. "At this moment Atalanta, for fun and enthusiasm, and Roma, because they are strong individually, because they are practical and cynical, seem to me the two favourites for fourth place." Atalanta shocked Napoli on Monday evening by beating Carlo Ancelotti's side 2-1, a result which saw them take fifth place from Roma's grasp. Just one point separates the two sides, with Atalanta level on points with fourth-placed Milan, who still have to face Torino and Fiorentina away in their remaining fixtures. In contrast, Roma's hardest fixture will be a home match against champions Juventus, whom Atalanta also have left on their schedule. Atalanta and Milan are both also still in the Coppa Italia, something which could work in Roma's favour. Want more Roma news on your timeline? Like the new Giallorossi Yorkshire Facebook page!
