Prediction: 0-1
AS Roma
Following a massive 5-1 loss at Fiorentina, Frosinone will look to give fans some cheer when they take on AS Roma in the Serie A round 25. The Canarini have been struggling at the back of late, with the team conceding 17 goals in total in the previous five league matches and it is no wonder the bookies see them as underdogs in Sunday’s encounter. Simone Romagnoli serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while all Riccardo Marchizza, Anthony Oyono, Kevin Bonifazi, and Sergio Kalaj remain in the recovery room.
The Giallorossi, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 4-2 loss to Inter. As Roma have been showing signs of improvement under Daniele De Rossi, we are tempted to place our bets on the capital club. Tammy Abraham continues to miss out with an ACL injury, while Chris Smalling faces race against the clock to bet fit for the match.
Highlighted Player (Rui Patricio):
Sporting Lisbon and Portugal national team goalkeeper Rui Patricio is a one-club man. He was reportedly close to signing with Serie A giants Inter Milan during the 2008 of-season, but he remained in his club where he will most likely hang up his boots when the time comes. The 28-year-old shot stopper spent most of his career with the Lions making his debut with the first-team at only 18 years of age.
Rui Patricio went on to appear in more than 350 official games for the Portugal greats and remains the first-choice keeper for his club and country. Having gone through all the youth selections with the national team, Rui Patricio was given his first senior cap in 2010 after Paulo Bento’s appointment.
Rui Patricio represented his national team at the 2014 FIFA World Cup and three European Championships. The 28-year-old was the mainstay in Portugal’s historic Euro 2016 title in France.
Highlighted Team (Frosinone):
Back in 1912 Frosinone were founded as Unione Sportiva Frusinate and it has to be noted that the colors of the team were originally red and blue. They were later changed to the current yellow and blue and the Canarini have been wearing those kits ever since. Frosinone made their first ever appearance in the Serie A in the 2015/2016 season, but they failed to secure the promotion.
The Canarini finished the season in 19th place in the standings, eight points behind Udinese, who eventually avoided relegation to Serie B. However, two years later Frosinone returned to the Italian top flight as they defeated Palermo 3-2 on aggregate in the play-offs final.
The club play their home games at Stadio Benito Stirpe, the stadium that was opened in 2017. The venue can hold 16,227 spectators and it is owned by the Municipality of Frosinone. The construction cost €20 million.
