Fiorentina Stats & Form
Fiorentina is currently in seventh place in Serie A with 56 points as many as Atalanta with 4 games to go in the Italian Serie A. They have won 17 games, lost 13 and played the league-low 5 draw matches.
They were one of the hottest teams starting the season with Dusan Vlahovic leading the top scorers list but in the middle of the season, the team management decided to accept the offer and sell the striker to the rival Juventus.
Fiorentina has struggled lately losing the last 4 games in all competitions, three of which in Serie A.
The Violets are coming off a 1-0 loss to AC Milan in the last round which is not a disaster but the 4-0 home loss to Udinese the previous week can be called as one. The last time Fiorentina scored was three weeks ago but they lost that game as well, 2-1 against a team from the relegation zone Salernitana.
Fiorentina is one of the better teams in Serie A when it comes to home games as they have 11 wins in 17 games with 2 draws and 4 losses.

Betting Tip
Both Fiorentina and Roma underachieved this season as their expectations were really high going into the season. They will probably play on the international scene next season but not in the desired competitions. Fiorentina’s recent struggles are mainly because they sold their top player Dusan Vlahovic to Juventus and the team attacking line was simply not the same after the Serbian youngest left Florence.
Roma is still in play to win the Europe Conference League this season but with failing to qualify for the Champions League next season, Jose Mourinho is on the hot seat. Both teams will enter this game with an urge to win and regain the winning mentality to close out the season. Both teams are offensively oriented and it is pretty easy to guess that this game will go over 2.5 goals.
