Matteo Marcenaro of Genoa has been assigned to referee Roma's first match of the 2026-27 season against Fiorentina on Monday 24 August at 20:45 at the Stadio Olimpico. The fixture marks Gian Piero Gasperini's official debut in Serie A with Roma. Marcenaro's assistants will be Lo Cicero and Rossi, with Fabbri as fourth official. Abisso will operate at VAR, supported by Giua as AVAR. Roma's record against Marcenaro is positive overall. In seven previous matches overseen by the Genoa-based referee, the Giallorossi have won four, drawn two, and lost one. Their most recent encounter came in the 2025-26 season, matchday 33 of Serie A, when Roma drew 1-1 with Atalanta. Fiorentina, by contrast, have a less favourable record with Marcenaro, having won four and lost two of their six previous meetings with him before the Atalanta fixture. Fiorentina's last game under Marcenaro was Atalanta-Fiorentina on matchday 13 of the 2025-26 season, which finished 2-0 to Atalanta.
