By Wale Mustapha

All eyes will be on Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman on Monday night when he lines up with Atalanta to face AS Roma in a crucial Serie A encounter.

Lookman has been in scintillating form this season, scoring nine goals across all competitions.

His performances have made him one of Atalanta’s standout players, and fans will be eager to see if he can add to his tally against Roma.

The 27-year-old Nigerian international was absent during Atalanta’s 6-1 demolition of Young Boys in the UEFA Europa League last week, but he is expected to be in the starting lineup for this Serie A showdown.

His goal-scoring prowess will be key as Atalanta aims to extend their impressive unbeaten run.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have been in excellent form, going unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions.

Atalanta currently sits second on the Serie A table with 28 points from 13 matches and will be looking to maintain their momentum as they push for a top spot.
