Fiorentina vs AS Roma Prediction 27.05.2023

• Competition: Italy - Serie A
• Date: Saturday, 27th, May 2023
• Kickoff: 17:00 UK / 18.00 CEST
• Venue: Stadio Artemio Franchi (Florence)

Fiorentina this season left a very weak impression compared to the previous one when they finished in seventh position. The position that brought them placement in the youngest competition UEFA (Conference League) and where they are now playing the final of the same against West Ham United. As for this year's edition of the Italian championship, Viola did not brilliant, as the table itself shows, considering that they are even below the top 10 (11th place) with 50 points won, but they will have the opportunity to improve their league position.

At one point, AS Roma was a strong candidate to finish the season among the top four, but very poor results lately have pushed them out of the part of the table that guarantees exit to the biggest international stage. Admittedly, Jose Mourinho and his chosen still have a chance to sneak into the top four, but to achieve that goal, they will have to win their two remaining games in Serie A and hope for stumbles by AC Milan, which has four points more than the Rome club.

Fiorentina vs AS Roma Betting Tips: Under 2.5

The first derby of central Italy, in mid-January this year, belonged to Roma, who celebrated with a routine 2-0 at "Olimpico" thanks to Paulo Dybala's goals. The Purples, although they want revenge, will not have an easy task to do so, considering that Roma have been a real nightmare for them, losing six of their previous seven duels.

Despite Roma's great tradition, we would rather avoid betting on the final result. Considering that both teams are only looking towards their European finals (Roma in the Europa League, while Fiorentina in the Conference League), perhaps they won't give too much importance to the offensive, which is why we should expect a low-scoring affair.

After all, the mood of Fiorentina is a big question mark, given that they come into this one after losing the Coppa Italia final to the Nerazzurri (1-2 / even though they took the lead first). In addition, even Roma is not highly motivated before the trip to Florence, since they tied five games without success on the side (D3 and L2).

Otherwise, we can notice that The Purples are not too sharp in the attacking line, even when they are in top form, not scoring more than one goal in seven of the last 10 home games. Also, when it comes to Serie A, we should say that they failed to break the barrier of 2.5 goals in five of the previous seven league clashes at home.

Meanwhile, Roma is  going through an obvious result crisis lately. They did not feel the sweetness of victory in the championship of Italy for more than a month, and during that time they drew four times and lost two. In addition, their attacking zone has a lot of hiccups, finishing three of the previous four competitive games without scoring a goal.

It should not be forgotten that the "Under 2.5" bet has been winning in six of Roma's previous seven games in all competitions, not to mention that their last two away games have been ended without goals. Taking all factors into account, we do not expect too much action, as well as goals, in the derby of central Italy.
