AS Roma vs Fiorentina – Match preview and team news

AS Roma vs Fiorentina – Match preview and team news AS Roma goes head-to-head against Fiorentina at their home ground on Monday night in a Serie A fixture. Gian Piero Gasperini’s men continue their chase for next season’s Champions League spot as they are currently in sixth position with 61 points in 34 matches, four points behind fourth-placed Juventus who have played 35 matches. AS Roma vs Fiorentina – Match preview and team news Date: Monday, 4th May.

Kick-off: 7:45pm BST. Venue: Stadio Olimpico, Roma. AS Roma team news Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini welcomes back Paulo Dybala and Manu Koné, both of whom have recovered from recent fitness issues and are expected to feature as Dybala already returned to action from the bench in Roma’s last outing.

However, the squad remains stretched by a significant injury list. Midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini is out with a thigh strain, while Bryan Zaragoza misses out due to knee inflammation. The attacking department is particularly thin, as both Artem Dovbyk and Evan Ferguson remain sidelined, leaving Donyell Malen to continue to lead the line.

Defensively, Konstantinos Tsimikas face late fitness tests for muscular problems. To add to the selection headaches, Neil El Aynaoui is unavailable due to a yellow-card suspension. Consequently, Matis Soulé and Paulo Dybala are set to support Malen to bridge the gap in their pursuit of a Champions League spot.
