Fiorentina vs AS Roma

 

Roma have won five of their first six Serie A games for the first time since the 2017/18 season (5W, 1L, and third place overall), the eighth time in total: only in 2013/14 (six out of six) did the Giallorossi won more games at this stage of the tournament.

Fiorentina (3D, 3L) have failed to win any of their first six games of the season for the third time in their Serie A history, after 1935/36 (2D, 4L) and 1977/78 (2D, 4L).

Fiorentina are unbeaten in four of their last five Serie A matches against Roma (W2 D2), although they lost their most recent encounter (1-0 on May 4); the last time Fiorentina lost two consecutive league matches against Roma was in 2021, when they recorded a run of five successive defeats.

Fiorentina are unbeaten in their last four Serie A home games against Roma (W3 D1), averaging 2.75 goals per game; the last time ACF Fiorentina had a longer unbeaten run against AS Roma in the competition was in 1989 (23 in a row).

Roma have scored in 13 of their last 14 Serie A matches against Fiorentina (24 goals in total), with the exception being a 2-0 defeat in May 2022.

Fiorentina are still looking for their first win in Serie A this season (D3 L2); only twice in their entire Serie A history have they failed to win any of their first six games of a top-flight season: in 1935/36 (D2 L4) and in 1977/78 (D2 L4).

AS Roma have kept four clean sheets in Serie A this season; only twice in their history have they recorded more after six league games (five in 1935/36 and 2013/14).
