Pisa vs Atalanta – a clash of a returning side and an established force in Serie A

Ahead of us is one of the most intriguing matches of Serie A’s January schedule: Round 21 of the 2025/2026 season brings Pisa vs Atalanta, set for January 16, 2026 at 20:45 at the iconic Arena Garibaldi in Pisa. The hosts are returning to the top tier after as many as 34 years of waiting, while Atalanta arrive as visitors, a club that in the last decade has grown used to playing in Europe and pushing the boundaries of attacking football. This is a duel where two very different stories meet: one written with the enthusiasm of a city that is living for Serie A again, and the other in which proven strength fights for another participation in the Champions League or at least in European competitions. The stakes are huge for both teams: Pisa chase every home point in their battle for survival, while Atalanta cannot afford to lose touch with the top of the table in the tight race at the summit of Serie A. Because of all that, interest in the match is exceptional, and ticket sales have already become one of the main topics among supporters, who want to create an atmosphere in the stands worthy of a return to first-division everyday life.

A competitive Serie A season and the position of Pisa and Atalanta

The 2025/2026 Serie A season entered the new year with an incredibly tight order at the top, where Inter, Milan, Napoli, Roma and Juventus are squeezed within just a few points, and practically every round can flip the story in favor of one of those title contenders. In that picture, Atalanta are moving just behind the very strongest, have already shown they can cope with the leaders and, for example, were only narrowly beaten away at Inter in one of the late-December derbies, confirming they remain a serious candidate for European places. Pisa, meanwhile, look primarily toward the bottom of the table and the survival line this season, aware that as a newly promoted side they are condemned to a constant fight, but also that every positive result against the giants can be a psychological boost for the rest of the season. The hosts have already shown they can be an awkward opponent – from narrow defeats against Inter and Juventus to their first historic wins after returning to Serie A – but points still have to be collected, especially in home matches like this. Precisely for that reason, this night at the Arena Garibaldi gains extra weight, and supporters are increasingly thinking about how to secure tickets in time so that their loud backing can push Pisa toward a potential surprise against Atalanta.

Pisa – return to the elite and the city’s football renaissance

In 2025, Pisa finally celebrated their return to Serie A after 34 years of waiting, which for the city under the Leaning Tower meant much more than mere sporting success: it was a return to the company of the biggest clubs and a kind of sporting rehabilitation after decades of wandering between lower divisions and financial problems. Promotion was secured through an excellent Serie B campaign, and riding that success and the glorious top-flight days of the late 1980s, the team once again became a symbol of the city, alongside a tourist icon such as Piazza dei Miracoli. At the moment supporters celebrated the return among the elite, beyond sporting excitement there was also a very concrete economic impulse: the arrival of big clubs means fuller stands, more visitors in the city and increased interest in accommodation for supporters on match day, especially on weekend slots and evening fixtures. After promotion came a change on the bench; the team was taken over by Alberto Gilardino, continuing the tradition of relying on charismatic former strikers who know what it means to carry responsibility in big matches. All of this together means that the duel with Atalanta is not seen as just another match of the season, but as part of a broader story of Pisa’s football and urban renaissance, in which every ticket purchase will also be a small vote of support for the long-term project of staying in Serie A.

Arena Garibaldi – a stadium in the shadow of the Leaning Tower

Arena Garibaldi – Stadio Romeo Anconetani is one of those football stages that have a soul and a specific character, and not only because it was opened as far back as 1909 and is located just a few hundred meters from the city’s most famous square. The stadium, with a capacity of around 8,500 spectators, is situated in a residential part of Pisa at Via Antonio Rosmini 61, and supporters often point out that from certain nearby spots the view opens toward the Leaning Tower, turning every visit by a big club into a postcard that travels the world. Its proximity to the center and landmarks makes it an ideal destination for fans who want to combine football and sightseeing, so it is no coincidence that as the season progresses more and more offers are sought for accommodation close to the venue, so that visitors can arrive a day earlier and turn the match into a small football city break. The stands are steep, supporters are close to the pitch, and the stadium’s acoustics create the impression that there are far more people than the official capacity suggests, which often weighs on visitors, especially when the home side ride a positive wave. In such an environment, tickets for a match like Pisa vs Atalanta become a kind of admission ticket to Italian football nostalgia – here the rhythm of “old Calcio” is still lived, but with the modern energy of a returnee hungry for success.

Atalanta under Juric – an aggressive and physically powerful team

Atalanta come to Pisa as a team that in recent years has established itself as a synonym for attacking football, but they entered the new season with an important change – Ivan Jurić is on the bench, a coach known for aggressive pressing, high intensity and demanding training. His imprint is already visible in the way the Bergamaschi defend and attack: a back line of three center-backs such as Hien, Scalvini or Djimsiti provides a solid foundation, while wing-backs Bellanova or Zappacosta constantly force opponents to retreat deep toward their own penalty area. In midfield, hard-working yet technically equipped players like de Roon, Éderson, Brescianini or Samardžić dominate, combining huge work rate with the ability to break Pisa’s lines with a single pass. In attack, Atalanta rely on a wide range of options: from the robust Gianluca Scamacca and the mobile Ademola Lookman to the versatile De Ketelaere or the fast Kamaldeen Sulemana, and that very variety is often key against teams like Pisa that have to defend in a low block. Although current reports say that some important players at certain moments of the season have had injury problems, it is clear that Jurić in Pisa, regardless of the starting eleven, will send out a team that will immediately try to impose its tempo, test the depth of the home defense and justify favorite status, while supporters of the European-place chasers are already planning the trip and the purchase of tickets for this attractive away clash.

Gilardino’s Pisa – a compact block and dangerous transitions

Alberto Gilardino is building a Pisa side that is aware of its limits, but also of its strengths: the hosts this season have often shown they can hurt the big teams when they manage to stay organized for a long time and then threaten from transitions with quick breaks forward. In the draw with Milan, in the narrow defeat to Roma and in matches against Inter and Juventus, Pisa knew how to tighten their defense in front of their own penalty area, force the favorites to be patient, and wait for the moment to intercept the ball and quickly switch play into the opponent’s half. Such an approach requires discipline from the entire team, from the first line of pressure to the last, and that is why Gilardino relies on players who can cover a lot of ground, communicate well and respect their tasks even when the ball is rarely seen in the hosts’ possession. Against Atalanta, who like to attack with many players and spread the game down the wings, that organization will be crucial: any late reaction or gap between the lines could open space for a Scamacca long-range shot, a Lookman run in behind the defense, or a Pašalić strike from the second line. That is precisely why it will be important for Pisa’s supporters to create an atmosphere from the first referee’s whistle in which the home side feel extra energy, and that begins with timely planning of the purchase of tickets, so that the stands are full even before the players run out to warm up.

Key on-field duels and possible lineups

On a tactical level, Pisa vs Atalanta could turn into a classic clash of the visitors’ 3-4-2-1 system against the hosts’ flexible 4-3-3 or 3-5-2, depending on whether Gilardino decides to further reinforce the defensive line. If Atalanta start with three center-backs, the two wing-backs will stand high and force Pisa’s wingers to drop deep into their own half, which means the home team will have to choose between compacting the middle and closing down the flanks. In that context, one of the key duels will be between Pisa’s holding midfielders and the more creative visiting midfielders such as Samardžić or Pašalić, who like to appear between the lines and open space for a shot or the final pass. Another important segment will be the duel of Atalanta’s central striker, whether that is Scamacca or perhaps De Ketelaere as a false nine, with the home center-backs, because any misjudgment of the ball’s flight or a late step out of the line will leave space for headers and combinations in the penalty area. Pisa, on the other hand, will look for situations in which they can isolate one of their fast wingers in a one-on-one against Atalanta’s center-backs, which could lead to free kicks on the edge of the penalty area or dribbles that lift the crowd to its feet. Precisely in those moments, when the match is decided, support from the stands – secured by a timely purchase of tickets – often provides that nuance that turns an ordinary duel into an action remembered for years.

Atmosphere in the stands and great interest in tickets

Arena Garibaldi has already experienced several real football spectacles this season, from the clash with leaders Milan to meetings against Inter and Juventus, when the stands were filled to the last seat and it was clear how big the city’s appetite is for top-level football. The return of Serie A also brought a new generation of fans who are watching the biggest Italian clubs live for the first time, while older supporters nostalgically remember the days when Pisa in the early 1990s played against greats such as Maradona or Van Basten. The match with Atalanta fits perfectly into that mosaic: it is attractive enough for neutral football lovers who want to see a fast, modern team from Bergamo, and at the same time it represents another maturity test for home supporters who have learned that their voice can push the team toward an unexpected result. Because of the stadium’s relatively small capacity, tickets for such matches disappear quickly, especially in the sections behind the goals and along the main stand where the atmosphere is fiercest and where the pulse of the match is best felt. Add to that the fact that many fans from other cities plan to combine the match with sightseeing in the city, and it becomes clear why the recommendation is to take ticket sales seriously and secure tickets for this event in time, and one of the most obvious steps is simply – click the button marked

Arriving in Pisa and access to the stadium

For supporters coming from outside, Pisa is relatively easy to reach because the city has an international airport and a railway station well connected with the rest of Italy, which makes planning a trip to the match easier. From the city center and the main station to the Arena Garibaldi you can get there with a gentle walk of about twenty minutes, passing along the Arno River and through narrow streets that, ahead of evening matches, are full of small bars and restaurants where fans warm up for what follows on the pitch. For those who want to arrive earlier and avoid the crowd, a smart idea is to reserve accommodation for supporters near the stadium a day or two before the match, which gives the option of walking back to the room after the final referee’s whistle. In practice, that means fans can leave the car or luggage outside the tightest stadium zone, head down toward the stadium an hour or two before kickoff, buy refreshments and souvenirs, and take their places in the stands without rushing. As the time for the first kick approaches, the approaches to the stadium become more and more crowded and the lines at the entrances grow, so another reason for purchasing tickets in advance is that it keeps fans away from unnecessary nerves and enables them to spend the evening focused on what they came for – the match itself.

Pisa as a weekend destination for supporters

The match between Pisa and Atalanta attracts not only local fans, but also those from Bergamo, the rest of Tuscany, and beyond, because many use the opportunity to turn a January weekend into a short stay in one of Italy’s most recognizable cities. The chance to stroll Piazza dei Miracoli in a single day, take photos by the Leaning Tower, have coffee by the Arno and go to a Serie A match in the evening makes this clash a perfect reason to plan a trip, whether it is a family outing or a group of friends. Many supporters are already combining itineraries in which a Saturday or Sunday stay in Tuscany is complemented by regional trips toward the coast or the interior, and the key element in all of that remains timely reservation of accommodation offers in the host city, especially in zones from which the stadium is easily accessible. When you also take into account that the match is played in an evening slot, it is clear that the day can be filled with sightseeing, gastronomic pleasures and walks, and then at dusk everything culminates with the walk onto the Arena Garibaldi pitch. For those who love the atmosphere of “small but hellish” stadiums, this match offers exactly that: an intimate setting, fanatical local supporters and an away sector full of Atalanta fans, who are known for loud, choreography-filled support for their team. All together, it makes tickets for this match not just an entry to the game, but also a key part of the weekend experience in Pisa.

What this duel means and how to get tickets in time

For Pisa, the Round 21 match against Atalanta represents much more than the chance to win another point or two; it is a maturity test for a team that wants to prove it belongs in Serie A not only statistically, but also through performances against teams that have regularly been near the top in recent years. For Atalanta, on the other hand, this is the type of match that separates teams that fight for the European zone from those that actually enter it – the visitors simply must find a way to break the home block and use the wide arsenal of attacking solutions at their disposal. In the stands, two football cultures will collide: the traditional, somewhat romantic image of a city that waited years to return among the elite, and a modern, Europe-oriented club from Bergamo, accustomed to big European nights. It is precisely that clash of styles, history and ambitions that creates the feeling that a night is ahead of us that supporters of both teams will remember for a long time, regardless of the final result. To experience that spectacle firsthand, fans should already be thinking about buying tickets, because it seems likely that tickets for this event will sell out quickly, and the simplest way to secure your tickets is to follow announcements about availability and, as soon as it becomes possible, click the button marked further down the page and thus reserve your place in the stands of the Arena Garibaldi.
