Roma
- I Giallorossi sit 6th in the Serie A table on 61 points from 34 games, while La Viola are 15th on 37 from 34.
- Roma have won 11, drawn three and lost only three of their 17 Serie A home games this season.
- Gian Piero Gasperini’s men have played a high-tempo, high-pressing system since he took over as head coach in June 2025.
Fiorentina
- Paolo Vanoli’s appointment as Fiorentina boss in November 2025 has given the team a new lease of life, with more structure and discipline in the midfield and in the defensive shape they try to maintain.
- Fiorentina’s away record in Serie A this term has not been strong, winning only four of 17 away games, drawing six and losing seven.
- La Viola have conceded an average of 1.47 goals per game on their travels and, although they have drawn their last two, which included a 1-1 away tie at Lecce and a goalless draw with Sassuolo, they have not been great away from home of late.
Head-to-Head
Roma have won two of their last three Serie A meetings with Fiorentina, who have failed to win on either of their previous two trips to Rome.
Key Players
- Donyell Malen has been their star performer, scoring 11 times in 14 Serie A appearances in 2025-2026, including five times in their last five games.
- Moise Kean has scored eight times in 26 Serie A fixtures this season and is still the club’s most reliable source of goals.
Betting Insights
- Roma are strong favorites at 1.69 to see off AC Fiorentina at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday when two clubs with contrasting objectives face off with everything to play for.
- Back both teams to score - No at 1.89 as the odds suggest Fiorentina won’t score and Roma are almost certain to grab the win at home.
Prediction
- Roma’s recent form has been strong with two wins and a draw in their last three home games and victories like a 3-0 home win over Pisa and 2-0 away at Bologna showing their momentum is with them.
- Over 2.5 goals looks an attractive bet at 1.93, but we’re going for the home win of a side with a lot of attacking thrust and a very solid defensive line that can keep Fiorentina out.
- A 2-1 away win for Roma was the result when these two teams last met in Serie A six months ago and we see a similar scenario unfolding here.
