Overview

• Atalanta and Lazio finished 0-0 at the New Balance Arena on October 19, with the hosts unable to turn long spells of control into a breakthrough.
• Ivan Provedel preserved Lazio’s point with a series of key stops, including a fingertip save from Ademola Lookman and quick reactions after a late effort came off the post.
• Lookman made his first start of the season following a summer push to join Inter and missed a close-range header early in the second half.
• Atalanta stayed unbeaten in Serie A but have two wins and four draws, reflecting a run of strong possession without consistent finishing.
• Lazio managed a clean sheet despite a stretched squad, as injuries and a reported transfer embargo limited options and forced returns like Mattia Zaccagni, while Matteo Cancellieri exited early with a muscle issue.
