Frosinone vs AS Roma prediction 18.02.2024

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: Sunday, 18th February 2024
• Kickoff: 17:00 UTC / 18:00 CET
• Venue: Stadio Benito Stirpe (Frosinone)

After winning the Serie B title last season, Frosinone secured a spot in Serie A. This season, their sole aim is to ensure their survival in the league, a feat they failed to accomplish in their previous two Serie A stints (during the 2015/16 and 2018/19 seasons). Despite an impressive start this season, their performance has been on a downward trend as the season progresses. Currently, they are ranked 14th with 23 points from 24 games &— a mere four points clear of the relegation zone.

AS Roma struggled to secure a Champions League appearance in the six years preceding Mourinho’s appointment, consistently ending between 5th and 7th place. However, under Mourinho’s leadership in the past two seasons, the team experienced European success, clinching the Europa Conference League title and achieving runner-up status in the Europa League. Despite these achievements, the team’s performance in Serie A remained stagnant, leading to the club’s decision to replace Mourinho with Daniele De Rossi on January 16. While it’s too soon to determine the effectiveness of this decision, the team has demonstrated promising performance in the initial games under De Rossi. Currently, AS Roma holds 6th place with 38 points, a mere four points away from the coveted 4th place and a Champions League spot.

Frosinone vs Roma pick: Roma to win

Frosinone’s performance has been dismal, with losses in seven out of their last nine games across all competitions. Their only non-defeat games were against the league’s weakest teams, Verona and Cagliari. Their performance against stronger teams was particularly poor. In the span of these nine games, they conceded 27 goals, averaging three goals per game.

Since De Rossi assumed control of AS Roma, the team has been in excellent form. They have claimed victory in three out of five matches across all competitions, only losing to Inter, who is currently Italy’s top team this season. Even in their defeat against Inter, AS Roma did not fall short of expectations.

In their last head-to-head match in October, AS Roma triumphed with a 2:0 score. Moreover, they have faced each other six times in the past, with Roma taking the victory in all encounters! Taking into account these previous matches and Frosinone’s poor performance, we predict that AS Roma is likely to clinch all three points at the Stadio Benito Stirpe in Frosinone.
