The two sides who split the victory with Torino and Salernitana last weekend square off in Saturday's match at Stadio Artemio Franchi.
Fiorentina: Nothing to Play For
The league campaign for Fiorentina is essentially ended. Before the European Conference League final, its form has deteriorated, with just one league victory in four. Also, the squad lost the Italian Cup final against Inter Milan 1-2, and several of its star players are anticipated to rest on Saturday.
The Conference final versus West Ham will be Fiorentina's most significant game of the season in two weeks. The club will only be eligible for European tournaments the following season if it wins that match. Fiorentina has only suffered two league losses since mid-February, so if you're placing an online wager, don't anticipate it to push for the victory. Instead, focus on a top-half finish.
Before this match, there are no new injury worries, thus we anticipate little changes from the hosts. Riccardo Saponara and Riccardo Sottil are anticipated to go to the bench in favor of Josip Brekalo and Jonathan Ikone, who are expected to enter the attack. Vincenzo Italiano's team may benefit from being back in Florence because they have scored eight goals in domestic home games since their last goal was allowed.
AS Roma: Eyes on Europa League Trophy
One of the few European contenders to gain from Juventus' points punishment earlier this week was José Mourinho's AS Roma. Even yet, the esteemed strategist dismissed it as a joke, saying he would have changed how he prepared for games if the deduction had been applied earlier. With Juventus now threatening to overtake them in seventh place, AS Roma will be hoping to quickly break its losing streak. But, a record of just one victory in 12 away games shows it will be more difficult than it seems.
The Portuguese boss seeks a trophy and eligibility for Europa. Roma has already qualified for Europa ahead of this weekend's trip to Fiorentina. A top-four finish is certainly out of Mourinho's reach, but he will use the team's match against Sevilla in the Europa League final as a back door way to qualify for the Champions League the next season.
Although there is still work to be done at home, Roma's recent streak of four draws and no victories in its previous six league games does not give us much hope, therefore we will not include it in our Serie A choices and parlays. Leonardo Spinazzola and Marash Kumbulla would be unavailable to Mourinho until the next season due to injuries. Yet the seasoned manager will rotate his players owing to the club's busy schedule, with Mady Camara, Ola Solbakken, and Diego Llorente likely to start in Florence.
Fiorentina vs AS Roma Head-to-Head
The hosts come into this match with three home clean sheets under their belts, but in all eight of their previous home meetings against AS Roma, they were unable to keep the back door shut. As a result of Inter winning the Coppa Italia but losing seven of their past eight games overall and failing to score three times, the visitors are now assured a spot in Europe.
In their most recent meetings, both sides won in front of their home crowds and kept a clean sheet, sharing the points. Only two of Fiorentina's 19 Seria A matches against teams that started the round above them in the rankings ended in victories.

Fiorentina vs AS Roma Predictions
The goal line is set at 212, and the hosts are listed as small favorites at +140 on the three-way money line in the most recent Serie A odds.
A recurrence of the draw pattern is likely as both clubs appear to be preoccupied with upcoming important games. Roma's recent scoring drought of only four goals reveals a lack of league potency. Before facing Sevilla in the championship game, a close draw that puts AS Roma on track for a Europa League berth looks like a solid option. The visitors should be pleased with a draw on Saturday before they depart for Budapest the following week.
Fiorentina has a 41.67% chance of winning according to the implied probability connected to the Serie A betting lines, while AS Roma has a 33.33% chance.
