Roma vs Salernitana Prediction: Serie A Match on 20.08.2023

The pressure will be on Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma this term, as they will be looking to improve on their showing from the previous campaign. The Italian giants open their campaign in front of their home fans this weekend when they take on Salernitana.

 

Serie A Preview

Mourinho will be looking to finally follow through on his target at Roma this term, as the Portuguese coach is yet to achieve a Champions League finish since arriving at the Italian club. It’s likely that the coach will be given one final opportunity this term after narrowly missing out on a spot in the competition after falling to defeat in the Europa League final against Sevilla at the end of last season. 

In the league, Roma finished sixth in the standings following a disappointing end to the campaign. Mourinho has been backed financially this summer with the arrivals of Evan Ndicka, Houssem Aouar, and Leandro Paredes. However, those signings will quickly need to gel in order for Roma to stand a leading chance of securing a top four finish.

Salernitana were one of a number of sides that had very little to play for over the final weeks of the season last term, as their survival was ensured with over a month of the campaign remaining. Ultimately, they finished eleven points above the drop zone, and they will need to start the new campaign quickly to ensure that they stand the best chance of finishing as near to the top half of the standings as possible. 

An interesting trend to consider this weekend is the fact that Salernitana have never previously drawn a match on the opening day of the season. They won their first matchday one clash in Serie A against Lazio in 1947, before suffering three defeats on the bounce in recent years. 

Roma vs Salernitana Head to Head

Interestingly, this was the opening match for both sides last term. On that occasion, Roma landed a 1-0 win. Roma are unbeaten in home Serie A matches against Salernitana, winning each of the last three. They have also recorded six wins in eight top-flight meetings between the sides. 

Roma vs Salernitana Prediction

This promises to be a huge season for Roma. We expect the Italian side to lay down a huge claim to finish in the top four this term, beginning with a comfortable win over Salernitana on matchday one.
