After the poor comeback suffered at Old Trafford against Manchester United , Gian Piero Gasperini 's Roma immediately want to raise their heads in the league and continue the streak of positive results in Serie A that has gone since last year's 5-2 defeat at San Siro against Inter.
On Saturday at 20:45 PM, the Romans will host Sassuolo, led by former teammate Alberto Aquilani , coming off two heavy defeats against Lazio and Fiorentina , in which the Emilian team conceded ten goals. Marco Di Bello will referee the match , assisted by Peretti and Scatragli. The official Fourth Official will be Abisso, while the VAR and AVAR officials will be Pezzuto and Guida, respectively.
Di Bello's record with Roma is positive
Saturday will be the 35th time the Brindisi referee has been in charge of Roma. The Giallorossi are the team the 45-year-old from Puglia has refereed most, and their record against the Roman side is absolutely positive: 21 wins, 6 draws, and 7 defeats. Furthermore, the Trigoria club has enjoyed a 10-game unbeaten streak under Di Bello, with eight consecutive victories.
Di Bello had not yet refereed any Roma matches this season. His last appearance was last season, when Gasperini's men managed a 2-0 win at the Dall'Ara against Bologna. Their last defeat came in the 2021-2022 season, when Roma were knocked out of the Coppa Italia 2-0 by Inter. In the league, however, Di Bello's last defeat came on December 4, 2021, at the Olimpico: the opponent, on this occasion too, was Inter.
