Bergamo's ground holds around 23,400 and has been home to Atalanta since 1928. Rebuilt stand by stand between 2019 and 2024, it now puts every seat close to the pitch. A January night under the lights, with the Curva Nord in full voice, is a very different experience from a sunny Sunday in the league.
There is plenty riding on it for the hosts. Last season Atalanta beat Genoa 4-0 and Juventus 3-0 at home before a semi-final against Lazio finished 3-3 on aggregate, with Lazio winning the shoot-out in Bergamo. Their only Coppa Italia win came back in 1963. A home draw against Udinese is a clear route back into the last eight, which is reason enough for Bergamo to turn out.
Cup ties in Italy often play to thinner crowds than league matches, but this one has a twist. Atalanta's 2026/27 season ticket covers 21 matches: all 19 Serie A home games, a Conference League play-off and this round of 16 tie. Every season ticket holder already owns a seat for the night, so far fewer tickets reach general sale than the date alone would suggest.
The visitors add a second layer of demand. Udinese reached this stage by beating Padova 1-0 in August and Venezia 2-1 in September, both at home in Udine. Their supporters face a long trip west across northern Italy on a Tuesday night, which keeps the away end smaller than for a weekend league match. Those who do travel tend to be the most committed.
Timing shapes the market too. A January kick-off at 21:00 suits locals and fans based in Milan, but asks more of visitors flying in for the night. Many buyers wait for the quarter-final picture to form before deciding.
Last season showed how much the opponent matters. Atalanta's round of 16 tie against Genoa in December 2025 drew 11,651 to Bergamo, while the quarter-final against Juventus in February 2026 pulled in 22,623, close to a full house. Udinese sit between those two in pulling power, so expect a crowd that fills the long stands and the Curva Nord with room to spare at the edges.
Resale prices for a cup tie behave differently from league football. Listings start lower and rise more slowly, but the best-placed seats in the long stands still go well before matchday. Buyers who want to sit together gain most by committing early, before the remaining pairs and fours are split up.
Yes, in principle. The Dea Card is Atalanta's supporter card, costing €20 and valid for five years. The club says it is not required to buy single tickets for home matches unless the public security authorities impose limits. It is needed for season tickets and for following the team in away sectors around the country.
The catch is supply. Season ticket holders already occupy a large share of the ground for this match. The club's season ticket campaign for 2026/27 has also closed. What remains goes on sale through the club's ticketing partner Vivaticket, online and at authorised outlets, once the club publishes its ticketing policy for the tie.
Italian law adds a layer that catches visitors out. Every ticket is issued to a named holder, so you need valid photo ID to buy and must show it with your ticket at the turnstile. A ticket in someone else's name will not get you in.
The 1BoxOffice marketplace is the alternative route. Sellers list seats with the stand, the sector and the delivery method shown before payment, along with any name-change requirements. Every order sits behind the same guarantee, which matters most to visitors booking travel to Bergamo for a single night.
Five factors set the price of a seat for this match. Seat location comes first, because central seats in the two long stands carry a clear premium over the curve. Demand follows; a cup tie against Udinese draws far less interest than a visit from Inter or Juventus.
Fixture timing matters: a Tuesday night in January thins out travelling buyers. Context adds pressure, because a place in the quarter-finals is at stake in a single game. Premium seating is the final layer and carries the widest spread in prices.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Nord and Curva Sud, home sections | £45 – £80 | Atmosphere seekers on a budget | Behind the goals; the Curva Nord is the home of the ultras and rarely sits down |
| Tribuna Rinascimento, outer sectors | £60 – £100 | First-time visitors who want a side view | Long side with an angled view towards one goal |
| Tribuna Ovest, outer sectors | £70 – £120 | Couples and neutrals | Long side opposite the Rinascimento, close to the touchline |
| Central sectors in either long stand | £90 – £160 | Buyers who want the classic angle | Near the halfway line; the first seats to sell |
| Premium and Legends Club seats | £150 – £300+ | Corporate guests and celebrations | Padded seats in the Tribuna Ovest or Rinascimento G sector |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
Listings for this tie currently start at around £48 behind the goals and £66 on the long sides. The gap between face value and resale is narrower than for a Serie A headline match, because cup demand is lower and the tie sits in a quiet part of the calendar. That makes it one of the more affordable ways to see Atalanta at home this season.
The New Balance Arena seating plan is a compact rectangle with four stands. Behind one goal is the Curva Nord, named after Federico Pisani, home of Atalanta's ultras and the loudest part of the ground. Opposite sits the Curva Sud, named after Piermario Morosini, which also contains the away sector. The two long sides are the Tribuna Ovest and the Tribuna Rinascimento.
The ground has changed almost beyond recognition in recent years. Atalanta bought the stadium from the city in 2017 and rebuilt it in stages while still playing there. The new Curva Nord opened in 2019 with more than 9,000 seats, the Rinascimento stand followed and the rebuilt Curva Sud was completed in 2024. Running tracks and open terraces have given way to steep stands close to the touchline.
Names can confuse first-time buyers. The ground was the Stadio Atleti Azzurri d'Italia from 1994, became the Gewiss Stadium in 2019 and took the New Balance Arena name in 2025. All three names refer to the same stadium, so listings that use any of them are for this ground.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curva Nord Pisani | Fans who want noise and singing | Lower | Home end of the ultras; expect to stand all match, home colours only |
| Tribuna Ovest, central | First-time visitors and tactical viewers | Highest | Halfway-line seats beside the Legends Club hospitality area |
| Tribuna Rinascimento | Value on the long side | Mid to high | Rebuilt stand with good sightlines; the G sector carries premium seats |
| Tribuna Ovest, outer sectors | Couples, families and neutrals | Mid | Angled view from either end of the long side |
| Curva Sud Morosini, home sections | Groups and value seekers | Lower | Behind the south goal, next to the visitors |
| Away sector | Udinese supporters | Set by the club's ticketing policy | 1,304 seats in the Curva Sud; white and black belong here and nowhere else |
Neutral buyers are better placed in the Tribuna Ovest or the Tribuna Rinascimento, away from both curve. Udinese fans buying outside the away sector should wear neutral clothing and keep celebrations low-key, as stewards can move supporters who stand out in home areas. Every listing for the New Balance Arena shows the stand and the sector before payment, so you know what you are buying.
Away sector sales follow their own rules. Atalanta publish a ticketing policy for each match that sets how the visitors' seats are sold. In Italy those seats are often reserved for holders of the visiting club's supporter card. Udinese fans without one should expect to buy elsewhere in the ground.
Because the ground is compact, there is no bad distance from the pitch. Front rows put you almost level with the players, while seats higher up give a better read of shape and pressing. Families should buy seats together and bring ID for every member of the group, including children.
Atalanta's premium offer centres on the Legends Club, a hospitality area linked to padded seats in the Tribuna Ovest and the G sector of the Tribuna Rinascimento. For this tie the club has a twist worth knowing. Its 2026/27 Legends Club season packages include hospitality for league matches but not for the Coppa Italia round of 16, where holders keep their seat without the lounge.
| Premium Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Tribuna Ovest central seats | Senior guests and milestone celebrations | Halfway-line view in the stand closest to the Legends Club area |
| Tribuna Rinascimento G sector | Corporate hosts and small groups | Premium padded seats on the long side opposite |
| Front rows of the long stands | Friends marking an occasion | Seats close to the touchline with a low, dramatic view of the action |
| Central upper rows | First-time premium buyers | A raised, central view at a lower price than the front rows |
Read the listing notes on any premium seat carefully, because what is included varies from one seller to the next. For a cup tie, the safest assumption is that you are buying a seat rather than a dining package unless the listing says otherwise.
The real extras are outside the ground. Bergamo's walled upper town, the Città Alta, sits on the hill above the lower town and is reached by funicular. With a 21:00 kick-off, an early evening there followed by dinner near the ground makes a strong pre-match plan.
Every ticket for this match is issued to a named holder under Italian law. Each marketplace listing explains how the ticket will reach you and whether a name change is needed, so you know exactly what is coming and when.
| Delivery Type | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| E-ticket | The delivery date and the name the ticket is issued under |
| Name change | Whether the seller will move the ticket into your name and the deadline for doing so |
| Dea Card ticket | Whether the seat is loaded onto a supporter card and how it will be handed over |
| Group booking | That every guest has their own named ticket and photo ID |
Bring a passport or national identity card that matches the name on your ticket, because stewards inspect both together at the turnstile before letting anyone through. Read the listing notes for delivery timing and any supporter-section rules. Charge your phone fully too, because a dead battery is the most common reason a mobile ticket fails at the gate.
The ground sits in the lower town, around two kilometres from Bergamo railway station. The walk takes 20 to 25 minutes, while city buses run between the station and the stadium area. Parking near the ground is limited and nearby roads close as kick-off approaches, so walking or public transport is the realistic option.
Plan the journey home before you travel, especially on a weeknight. A 21:00 kick-off means the final whistle falls close to 23:00, so anyone heading back to Milan should confirm the last train before buying. Staying overnight in Bergamo removes that pressure entirely.
The away sector holds 1,304 seats, with eight spaces for supporters using wheelchairs and eight for companions. Supporters with access needs should contact the club before buying, as accessible positions are allocated separately.
Two club locations are worth knowing on the day. The Ticketing Point sits on viale Giulio Cesare beside the ground, while the stadium sales office uses Gate 2 Rinascimento Nord on Piazzale Olimpiadi, next to the Curva Nord entrances. Queues at the stadium can be slow because every ticket is issued against an ID document, which is why the club urges fans to buy in advance rather than on the night.

Overseas buyers should make sure the name on their ticket matches their passport before travelling, since that is what stewards will compare at the gate. If you are travelling as a family or a group, filter for listings marked as seated together and read the notes on how the seats sit within the sector. Milan Bergamo Airport at Orio al Serio is only a few kilometres from the city, while trains from Milan reach Bergamo in around an hour.
The main risk is the late finish on a weeknight. Book a hotel in Bergamo for the Tuesday night rather than relying on a late connection back to Milan or an early flight the next morning. A base near the station keeps the ground and the airport bus close. Cup dates are also less settled than league fixtures, so choose flexible travel in case the Lega Serie A adjusts the date or kick-off time.
The cup history between the clubs is short but pointed. Their first meeting came in September 1939, when both were in Serie B and Atalanta won 4-2 in Bergamo in a preliminary round. The sides did not meet in the competition again for 66 years.
When they did, the tie was a two-legged round of 16 in the 2005/06 season. Atalanta, then in Serie B, beat a Udinese side playing in the Champions League 1-0 in Bergamo. Udinese turned it around with a 3-1 win at the Stadio Friuli in January, with Antonio Di Natale among the scorers, to go through 3-2 on aggregate.
What makes this tie distinctive is the split by venue. Atalanta have won both cup meetings in Bergamo, while Udinese have won both at the Stadio Friuli. The overall record stands at two wins each. Under Maurizio Sarri in his first season in charge, Atalanta will want to keep the home side of that pattern intact.
The wider cup record explains why Bergamo takes this competition seriously. Atalanta have reached six Coppa Italia finals but won only one, beating Torino in Milan in 1963 with an Angelo Domenghini hat-trick. They lost the 1987 and 1996 finals, then three more in 2019, 2021 and 2024, the last two against Juventus. Their 2024 Europa League win proved the club can finish the job on a big night, which only sharpens the hunger for a second domestic cup.
Udinese carry a longer and quieter story. They reached the very first Coppa Italia final in 1922 but lost to Vado and have never lifted the trophy. Their closest modern run came in 2013/14, when they beat Fiorentina 2-1 in the first leg of the semi-final before losing 2-0 in Florence. A win in Bergamo would put them within one tie of the last four again.
Only two cup meetings have taken place in Bergamo, so the figures below cover all Coppa Italia meetings between the sides at every venue, from 1939/40 to 2025/26.

Buying before the club's general sale ends gives the widest choice of seats. Listings currently start around £48 behind the goals, with central seats in the long stands reaching £160.
The away sector holds 1,304 seats in the Curva Sud. White and black are fine there, but anywhere else in the ground neutral clothing is the safer choice.
Yes, because Italian tickets are issued to a named holder and stewards compare the ticket with your ID at entry. Make sure the ticket is in your name before you travel.
The tie goes straight to a penalty shoot-out after 90 minutes, with no extra time. Allow for a finish of up to 15 minutes later than usual when planning your journey home.
Yes, as long as you choose a listing marked as seated together for your full quantity. Pairs and fours are easiest to find, while larger parties should buy early or split across neighbouring rows.
