| PROBABLE LINE-UPS |
ROMA  Stekelenburg Taddei, Juan, Heinze, Jose AngelPjanic, De Rossi, Greco Lamela, Totti, Bojan | FIORENTINA  Boruc Gamberini, Natali, Nastasic Cassani, Lazzari, Montolivo, Kharja, Vargas Jovetic, Ljajic |
Injuries to defenders Marco Cassetti and Nicolas Burdisso will see Taddei move into a full-back role and Gabriel Heinze partner Juan in central defence. Leading scorer Pablo Osvaldo will likely miss the match with a thigh injury he sustained in training last week. Fiorentina coach Delio Rossi could rest Valon Behrami after the Switzerland international picked up a knock at the weekend, while Khouma Babacar is still not yet ready to feature for the Viola.
| DID YOU KNOW? |
- Roma are currently enjoying a four-game unbeaten streak following their 2-0 victory over Chievo on Sunday.
- The Giallorossi have scored seven goals in their last three encounters.
- The capital city club have made the Coppa Italia final three times in the last five years, winning the trophy twice during that span.
- Fiorentina have picked up only one win in nine road games this season.
- The Viola have been held scoreless in seven matches away from home this term.
- Rossi's men beat Roma 3-0 at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Serie A action in December.
Roma have put their poor start to life under Luis Enrique behind them and are playing some good football. They should dispose of a Fiorentina side who are very poor away from home.

Roma 2-1 Fiorentina
