Daniele De Rossi plays out his first Serie A game on the road this weekend with a trip to Salernitana, so let’s take a look at the analysis, football predictions, trends and statistics for this vital league clash.
The club legend spent 19 professional years at his boyhood club and played over 600 games for Roma.
Now in charge of the club, De Rossi got off to a flying start with a narrow win over Hellas Verona in the last outing.
Lorenzo Pellegrini and Romelu Lukaku bagged goals each that day - the Belgian now has nine league goals to put him on a record of scoring in 50% of the Serie A matches so far.
Nevertheless, despite the positive start under their legendary former midfielder, Roma have only nine wins on the board and sit down in eighth.
A spot in the Champions League for next season is far from over, however, with the men from the capital only behind Fiorentina by two points.
Roma are also searching for their first away victory in Serie A in almost two months since beating Sassuolo 2-1 at the Mapei Stadium back in early December.
A loss away to Bologna would come shortly after, as they also suffered defeats at Juventus and at the San Siro to AC Milan.
Further trends on road have seen them lose to their city rivals Lazio, in the Coppa Italia, while they have managed to defeat Sheriff Tiraspol in the Europa League during this period too, as De Rossi looks to put together another European cup final run, just as Jose Mourinho did so in the last two campaigns.
The last away game in Serie A saw Roma lose to Milan, as Leandro Parades bagged a goal from the penalty spot in the second half.
The club have also managed to draw at home to Salernitana already this season, drawing 2-2 thanks to a goal in either half of then new signing Andrea Belotti.
Salernitana saw Antonio Candreva score twice that day, but things have gone a bit south for them in recent times with them losing every game in 2024 so far.
This saw them get smashed 6-1 by Juventus in the Coppa Italia round of 16 before losing at home to the Turin outfit in the league.
Worse yet, they lost at home to the struggling Genoa last time out and were also beaten by Napoli in Naples before that. Forebet now predicts a win for Roma and over 2.5 goals.
