AS Roma Team News
After returning from the World Cup break, Roma recorded two wins and one draw in all competitions. First, they defeated Bologna at home with a score of 1-0, and then they played drew match against Milan at San Siro.
Until the 87th minute, Roma did not send a shot at the current champion’s goal, and then towards the end of the match, they managed to turn the score around and make the final score 2-2.
On Thursday, in the Italian Cup at the Olimpico, they celebrated against Genoa with a score of 1-0. The Giallorossi had 25 shots on goal, so they could have achieved a more convincing victory.
Roma is currently in 7th place in the table with 31 points from 17 matches played. They are only 3 points behind fourth-placed Inter, so Jose Mourinho’s team can still hope to qualify for the Champions League next season.
Fiorentina Team News
On the other hand, Fiorentina is in 9th place in the Italian championship with 23 points, which is 8 points less than the next opponent. After the break, just like Roma, they recorded two wins and one draw in all competitions. So, you can see the similarity between these two clubs, except for the style of play.
This will be Vincenzo Italiana’s first away game in 2023. They played all three previous matches at their Artemio Franchi stadium. First, they drew with Monza 1-1, then they defeated Sassuolo 2-1, and on Thursday they eliminated Sampdoria with a minimal 1-0 in the Italian Cup.
By the end of the championship, Fiorentina will try to reach a position that would ensure their appearance in one of the European competitions next season. So every next point is very important for Fiorentina.
Next match may not be the ideal opportunity for that, considering that Viola lost against Roma in all three of their last visits to the Olimpico.

AS Roma vs Fiorentina Prediction
Roma and Fiorentina are quite similar teams. This season in Serie A, Roma conceded only five goals at home. On the other hand, Fiorentina has good counterattacks away from home.
Both of them played three matches after the break, both teams ended two of the three matches with the number of goals below 2.5. So that combination should be the best option for their match on Sunday.
