Roma vs Venezia Prediction

The Giallorossi are unbeaten in their last four games, though three have ended in draws. They are unbeaten in their last eight Serie A home meetings against the visitors, recording six wins, and are strong favorites.

Ivan Jurić is expected to rest Paulo Dybala here after the winger was subbed off against Athletic Bilbao in the midweek clash. Alexis Saelemaekers remains a long-term absentee while Enzo Le Fée, Zeki Çelik, and Lorenzo Pellegrini face late fitness tests.

The Lagunari registered their first win of the season last week, ending their six-game winless streak in Serie A. Nonetheless, they are winless in their last 10 away games, which is a cause for concern.

Bjarki Bjarkason is a confirmed absentee while Giorgio Altare is a doubt. Alfred Duncan has recovered from a minor injury and should be available for selection.

Both teams recorded wins last week and will look to continue that momentum here. Nonetheless, considering the home advantage for the capital club, the hosts are expected to eke out a narrow win.
