Just a few days to Christmas, Roma faces struggling Fiorentina in a head to head on Friday, 20th December 2019. Even though this match seems like a surefire win for Roma, who has delivered incredible results consistently despite the odds and the injuries suffered by teammates, it'll be a fool's thought to undermine Fiorentina's ability to defend its fort and fight for glory. Whereas being on the opposing side of the tenth place will keep Fiorentina on their toes during the head to head, that doesn't mean that they'll make winning any easier for Roma.

On the other hand, Roma has never shied away from a challenge. Even when the odds are clearly against them, they always manage to evade their fierce rivals and register their names on the winning side of the scoreboard. This team is relentless when it comes to performance on the playing field, and as the year draws to a close, we can only expect them to go all out to secure one last win for their fans.

Since Paulo Foreseca took the mantle of leadership in Rome, he has consistently delivered amazing results, all to the chagrin of his rivals. Even with a depleted and weakened team, Paulo continues to wow the audience with last minute-miracles that end up spinning the odds in Roma's favor.

What to expect in the match?

It's Christmas, and everyone is looking to welcome some respite after engaging in countless battles from the beginning of the year. But there is no resting for these two, at least not until they prove to the world who the better team is. Indeed, this game is going to be a playoff for the history books. Keep in mind that Roma's 3-1 triumph last Sunday over the ferocious and relentless SPAL, was without Antonio Mirante, Davide Santon, Javier Pastore, Davide Zappacosta, Bryan Christante, Gianluca Mancini, and Chris Smalling on the playing field. Now with two of their most ferocious players back in action, there is no telling what this relentless team can do.

On the other side, Fiorentina's ill luck this season is quite shocking for most people, as we expected more from the young talented players in their Camp. With only four points separating them from the relegation zone, this could be the golden opportunity they've been waiting for to impress their fans. Besides, Fiorentina has many skillful attackers that, if left unchecked, could do some severe damage to Roma's defense.

All in all, Friday's fixture between Roma and Fiorentina will be an exciting match.
