Roma Preview – Can Roma win three on trot?
Recent back-to-back wins have seen Roma revive their fortunes in Serie A after suffering two defeats on the trot against Bologna and Inter Milan, but the rejuvenated hosts will be going in search of a third win on the trot this evening.
Wins against Spezia and Atalanta have helped maintain Roma’s European ambitions as the hosts still remain in 6th place but they know they need to maintain their momentum in order to fight off the challenges from Fiorentina and Lazio.
Despite defeats at home to the two clubs from Milan, Inter and AC, Roma have generally been pretty consistent on home soil as the hosts have won six of their nine games played to date.
Sampdoria Preview – Can Sampdoria climb up table?
15th placed Sampdoria also have reason to be cautiously optimistic ahead of this midweek clash against Roma as the visitors have picked up four points from their last two games having recorded a 3-1 win away at Genoa and gaining a point in a 1-1 draw at home with Venezia.
However, three wins out of their last nine matches overall in Serie A underlines Sampdoria’s inconsistent streak although two of these three wins were actually picked up on the road at Salernitana and Genoa.
It should be noted though that both Salernitana and Genoa sit in the bottom three of Serie A and the visitors haven’t fared well at Roma on their last three visits to the Stadio Olimpico.
