It kicks off at 20:45 CET (19:45 BST) at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, and it’s the final round of Serie A Week 35.

Milan, Juventus and Como have dropped points in this round, so Roma have a good chance to move one point behind the Bianconeri in fourth.

Fiorentina, on the other hand, sit 16th with a nine-point lead over 18th-placed Cremonese, who will host Lazio at 18:00 CET.

Roma must cope without the suspended El Aynaoui and the injured Artem Dovbyk, Evan Ferguson, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Bryan Zaragoza.

According to several sources, including Sky Sport Italia , Argentine star Dybala is fit to start up front for the Giallorossi, and so is Manu Koné in central midfield.

The Tuscans have travelled to Florence without Tariq Lamptey, Luis Balbo, Niccolò Fortini, Moise Kean and Roberto Piccoli.

What happened

Roma host Fiorentina at the Stadio Olimpico in Serie A Week 35 with important points at stake in the race for fourth place. Multiple reports indicate Paulo Dybala is fit to start alongside Matias Soulé and Donyell Malen, while Manu Koné is also expected to return in midfield. Roma are without suspended Neil El Aynaoui and injured Artem Dovbyk, Evan Ferguson, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Bryan Zaragoza. Fiorentina travel without Tariq Lamptey, Luis Balbo, Niccolò Fortini, Moise Kean and Roberto Piccoli.

Chance analysis

This matters because likely starting elevens and confirmed absences directly affect attacking projection, chance creation and squad balance close to kickoff. Roma appear boosted by Dybala's expected return, but their missing attackers still reduce depth, while Fiorentina's absent forwards could weaken their attacking threat.

Impact

Roma gain from Dybala's likely return, but both teams enter with notable absences that can shape match dynamics.

AI Insight

Treat this as late pre-match lineup and availability news that modestly boosts Roma's attacking ceiling while lowering Fiorentina's offensive depth.
