Cardiff accord Roma grand-occasion welcome with 10,000 fans and Totti tribute

Roma's Primavera side travel to league leaders Inter for a Friday evening fixture in Primavera 1's ninth matchday, with kick-off at 18:00. Roma come into the game after a 2-2 home draw with Genoa last Saturday and sit fifth in the table on 13 points, five behind Inter at the top. Coach Mattia Scala has opted for a 3-5-2 formation. Marchetti and Cama operate wide, while Paratici and Arena form the attacking pair. Roma's starting line-up is Kilvinger; Bonifazi, Terlizzi, Basile; Marchetti, Giammattei, Ballarin, Maccaroni, Cama; Paratici, Arena. The match is the early kick-off of the weekend's round, and Roma will be looking to close the gap on the top of the table against a side that has yet to drop a place in the standings this season.

Roma travel to Udine on Saturday 31 October with a kickoff at 18:00, facing an Udinese side in deep decline under Kosta Runjaic, whose position is under severe scrutiny. Udinese sit on just 5 points in the table and have won only ... no, they have one point less than that suggests: the article states they are in a crisis, with their bench reportedly in danger and another slip potentially costing Runjaic his job. Udinese's 0-0 draw at Parma in midweek ended a run of defeats but did not cure their problems. They have scored only one goal in their last five outings and their play has been slow and predictable. The most worrying figure for Runjaic concerns home form at the Bluenergy Stadium, where four of their six league defeats this season have come, against Lazio, Cagliari, Lecce and Milan, and where the attack has drawn a blank in their last three home matches. Their injury list is crowded: Solet is hoped to be available for the match, while Bertola is out along with long-term absentees and Alaba. Udinese were rescued at Parma only by a late save from Okoye, who stopped a penalty. Roma have historically struggled in Friuli, regardless of form or league position. Their last meeting there came in February, a 1-0 home win for Udinese thanks to a goal from Ekkelenkamp. In 2024-25 and 2023-24 Roma won narrowly, 2-1 on both occasions, while in September 2022 Udinese won a heavy 4-0. Gasperini is expected to make some rotations but no wholesale turnover, with the focus on Udinese before the Champions League big match against Manchester United on Tuesday.

Roma travel to Udinese for the tenth round of Serie A Enilive, with the match broadcast live and exclusively on DAZN and a 6pm kickoff. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini's side return to away action after a 4-2 win over Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico on Tuesday. The fixture comes with a wider context. Roma want to build momentum before their demanding Champions League trip to Manchester United next Tuesday, and three more points in Friuli would strengthen their position as they prepare for that test.
