Serie A 2025-2026: Fiorentina v Roma, the likely lineups

Fiorentina and Roma face each other at 3 p.m. at the Stadio Franchi in the match valid for the seventh day of Serie A. Stefano Pioli’s Viola are still winless after five matches, and the Emilia coach’s position is already at risk: the lily-livered team at home lost both matches against Napoli and Como. Gasperini’s Giallorossi, on the other hand, are always winning on the road, occupying the first position tied with Milan, Napoli and Inter after four victories in five matches.

Pioli relies on Kean as central point, Fazzini and Gudmunsson behind him. Nicolussi Caviglia starts in midfield along with Mandragora, on the flanks are Gosens and Dodò.

Roma: Dybala is back but will initially sit on the bench. Dovbyk despite two missed penalties in the Europa League should win the ballot with Ferguson. Behind him are Soulé and Pellegrini.
