Roma vs Fiorentina: Predictions and Betting Tips

Roma

After a disappointing last season, in which they finished seventh, and out of the Champions League and Europa League, Roma are back in action under José Mourinho. This should mean that Roma will have a chance, and be a tough opponent this season.

Roma’s signings for this season include Rui Patrício and Matias Viña, and there is the imminent arrival of Tammy Abraham from Chelsea to replace Edin Džeko’s departure to Inter Milan.

Roma was the third best home team in Serie A last season.

Fiorentina

After a really bad last season in which Fiorentina were only able to to avoid relegation to Serie B in their last few games, they will be aiming to get back into the European places or to get as close to them as possible.

With players like Nikola Milenković, Sofyan Amrabat, Gaetano Castrovillo, Dušan Vlahović, José Callejón and Nico González, Fiorentina should be fighting to be, at the very least, among the top ten teams in Italy.

Key Stats:

• Two wins, two draws, and one defeat for Roma in their last five games
• Roma’s last two games have ended with at least five total match goals
• Four wins and one draw for Fiorentina in their last five games
• Fiorentina have only conceded one goal in their last five games

Roma vs Fiorentina Predictions

With the arrival of José Mourinho and on the back of a promising pre-season, Roma seem likely to present a tough challenge to any team. Furthermore, the squad has been reinforced by the arrivals of Rui Patricio in goal, and Matias Viña in defence. Taking this into account, we see Roma as the stronger team and, therefore, favorites to take all three points.
