AS Roma vs Fiorentina prediction
THE FORECAST
Roma opens at home at the Olimpico against Fiorentina on the first matchday, and as the home team with typically greater squad depth has a clear advantage, reinforced by additions such as Molina and Koulierakis who immediately make the squad broader. Fiorentina has a busier schedule (next match already after 5 days) and an extensive transfer period that could affect cohesion, while Sottil and Parisi are also missing on the flanks. The heat (up to 35°C) can slow down intensively pressing teams, but Roma play at home and have more rest days, which further tips the balance in their favour.
