In eighth place, Fiorentina are only three points behind AS Roma and Atalanta who occupy sixth and seventh positions. To maintain hope for European competition, La Viola needs to win at home to Roma in order to equalize the number of points with the two clubs above it.

Preview
Although Roma have won just one of their last five matches in various competitions, they have ended the other four with three draws and just one loss. And to be sure, the Giallorossi arrive highly motivated after qualifying for the UEFA Conference League final, which will be their first European championship final in 31 years.
Tammy Abraham’s action to tear the goal guarded by Kasper Schmeichel also opened up opportunities for Roma to end their wait for a title that has not been achieved since 2008. After beating Leicester City with a 2-1 aggregate, Roma will meet Dutch club Feyenoord in The UECL final will be held in Tirana, Albania.
But before that, Roma must be able to take advantage of the moment of awakening to steal points from Fiorentina’s headquarter in order to increase their chances of fighting in the Europa League next season. According to the standings, Roma only needs three more points to equal the number of points owned by their city rivals, Lazio, who are currently fifth.
Going by their head-to-head record, this shouldn’t be an uphill task for Roma who have won six of their last nine visits to Florence in Serie A – two draws, one loss. But they need to be wary of the tough form Fiorentina put in by becoming the club with the third best record in home games in Serie A this season – collecting 35 points from 17 games.
