Serie A2026/27Atalanta penalty taker
Atalanta's order is disputed. Scamacca's primary position is supported by a competitive conversion with De Ketelaere starting and by the 2025/26 event sequence. For the backups, current SOS Fanta gives Samardžić 2/2 and Éderson 1/1, while De Ketelaere was 0/1; Fantacalcio also records Éderson taking successfully when Scamacca was absent. Goal still puts De Ketelaere second, so the backup reorder is evidence-led but low confidence. Sarri's arrival resets the tactical hierarchy. Samardžić is preferred to Éderson only as the best practical ordering from conversion volume; the two backup slots remain close. Scamacca is well supported, but Samardžić and Éderson are ordered from conversion volume rather than a current like-for-like event. Conditions: Any summer departure involving Samardžić or Éderson, or the arrival of a specialist forward, changes the backup order. If Sarri publicly designates De Ketelaere or uses him on the next like-for-like penalty, restore him to the top three.
