Roma will entertain Verona at Stadio Olimpico in Serie A on Saturday. The capital club are seventh in the league table with 54 points, five fewer than fourth-placed Juventus. The visitors have won nine of their 32 league games and are 14th in the standings.
The hosts extended their unbeaten streak in Serie A to 16 games last week as they were held to a 1-1 draw against local rivals Lazio. It was a close game, and after a goalless first half, Alessio Romagnoli gave Lazio the lead in the 47th minute, and Matías Soulé equalized in the 69th minute.
The Mastini are unbeaten in their last four league outings, playing out three consecutive draws. After a 1-1 away draw against Torino earlier this month, they were held to a goalless draw at home by Genoa last week.
