Match Preview:
Capping off Gian Piero Gasperini's first few weeks as Roma boss, a 1-0 win in last weekend's Derby della Capitale certainly boosted the growing feelgood factor, while three points took the Giallorossi up to fourth place in the early league standings.

Brought in from the cold, club captain Lorenzo Pellegrini became the first man to score in all of the last 11 Serie A seasons, and beating old foes Lazio has become a happy habit in recent years.

Roma have now conceded just one goal in the last five top-flight derbies, and their latest win served as a springboard for more success on Wednesday.

Verona's last league win over Roma at the Olimpico dates all the way back to 1973, so history will be stacked against them as they head for the 'Eternal City' this weekend.

While their hosts sit second-top of Serie A's possession stats this season, Hellas have the lowest rate so far, meaning they should not expect to see much of the ball.

Yet to win within 90 minutes this term, Verona have made a slow start to the campaign, drawing three of their first four top-flight games and losing the other.

Match Prediction:
Fatigue may be a factor after two big wins, but even if Roma make a slow start, they have been keeping the back door firmly shut this season. After conceding just twice in five games, the Giallorossi should hold a tame Verona side at arm's length while scoring at least once themselves.
