AS Roma vs Fiorentina – Predicted lineup and team news AS Roma will host Fiorentina at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday night in a Serie A clash. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side is still pushing for a Champions League place. They currently sit sixth in the table with 61 points from 34 games, trailing fourth-placed Juventus by four points, although Juve have played one match more.
Roma are in good form heading into this match, having picked up three wins from their last five games (W-D-W-L-W). Their most recent result was an impressive 2-0 away win over Bologna. At home, they have been particularly strong, staying unbeaten since November and winning 11 of their 13 matches against lower-ranked opponents at the Olimpico.
AS Roma team news There is some positive news for the squad, as Paulo Dybala and Manu Koné have both returned from injury. Dybala even made a substitute appearance in the last match and is expected to be involved again. However, Roma still have several injury concerns.
Lorenzo Pellegrini is sidelined with a thigh injury, while Bryan Zaragoza is out due to a knee issue. In attack, Artem Dovbyk and Evan Ferguson are both unavailable, meaning Donyell Malen is likely to lead the line once more. In defence, Konstantinos Tsimikas is a doubt due to a muscle problem, and Neil El Aynaoui will miss the game through suspension after accumulating yellow cards.
