Following Thursday's 2-1 victory over Turkish club Trabzonspor in the playoff round of the inaugural Europa Conference League, José Mourinho and Roma turn their attention to Serie A. The Special One officially kicks off his tenure as Giallorossi manager by welcoming a tough Fiorentina side to the Stadio Olimpico in this Matchday 1 fixture.
While Eldor Shomurodov played the role of hero in last week's victory, the overall product on the pitch was a bit uneven, particularly in the final third. With 90 minutes under their belts already, Mourinho's men will be hoping for a more efficient victory this time out.
Will they get it? We're about to find out!
