Let's dig into the heart of the matter, between Roma and Venezia for what promises to be a fierce Serie A match-up.
Looking at their door guardians, Roma has a slight upper hand with Mile Svilar posting a slightly superior rating of 7.07 and 9 saves, outshining Jesse Joronen from Venezia, who holds a 6.93 rating with 8 saves under his belt.
Diving deeper into the field, we can't neglect the capability of Gianluca Busio for Venezia. His last month stats show a solid rating of 7.30 with a commendable pass accuracy of 81.2%. Joel Pohjanpalo holds his own too with a goal and two shots on goal. But, it's not an individual's game. We can't ignore the overall composition of the team where Roma holds the aces with Evan Ndicka who is outstanding in his defense gameplay, boasting a 7.37 rating and 96.9% pass accuracy. Paulo Dybala and Artem Dovbyk, add some amazing talent in the goal scoring department, with 1 and 2 goals respectively, over the last month.
Examining the regular season record, things seem a bit foggy with Venezia at 1-1-3 and Roma not far away with 1-3-1. Looking at the most recent results, Roma has managed some steady performance against formidable teams like Udinese, Genoa and Juventus, while Venezia has been experiencing some tremors, especially that heavy defeat against Milan.
Based on performance, history, and a dash of gut feeling, the stars are leaning heavily towards Roma.
