Stadio Artemio Franchi - Firenze
Since the beginning of September 2024, excluding penalties, only Mateo Retegui (6) has scored more than Moise Kean (four a level with Dany Mota) in Serie A.
Fiorentina have scored at least five goals in two consecutive matches in a row in Serie A for the first time since December 1997 (5-1 vs Vicenza and 5-0 vs Atalanta in that case).
Roma have conceded at least five goals in a Serie A game for the first time since February 2011 (defeat 5-3 in away match vs Inter).
Fiorentina have won just two of their last 12 Serie A games against Roma (D4 L6), although the most recent two ended in draws. Indeed, the Viola could record three draws in a row against the Giallorossi in the competition for the first time since 1977 (run of four).
Roma have not won any of their last three away games against Fiorentina in Serie A (D1 L2), after having recorded three wins in the previous four (D1). Indeed, the last time the Giallorossi kept a clean sheet away from home against the Viola in the league dates back to April 2014 (1-0), since then they have conceded at least one goal in 10 consecutive away games.
Fiorentina have lost on each of the last four occasions in which they have faced Roma with more points in the table at the start of the matchday in Serie A (+3 in 2024-25); the most recent of these was in October 2015 (1-2).
After starting this season with three draws and one defeat, Fiorentina have won three of their last four games (D1) in Serie A, including the two most recent. Raffaele Palladino's side could record three successive wins in the competition for the first time since last December.
Roma have earned 10 points (W2 D4 L2) in Serie A this season; it’s the lowest haul for the Giallorossi after the first eight games of the season since 2010-11 (9). Indeed, the only time in which they have recorded a maximum of two wins in the first nine games in a Serie A season in the three points for a win era dates back to 2008-09 (2), when they finished the season in sixth place.
