Roma-Inter fixture sells out in advance of 19 September clash

Fabio Maresca has been appointed referee for Monday's Serie A match between Torino and Roma, the fourth round of fixtures. The official from Naples will oversee the fixture scheduled for 18:30, supported by assistants Tegoni and Fontani, with Sozza as fourth official and Aureliano and Ghersini in the VAR room. Roma's record with Maresca is the stronger of the two sides. The Giallorossi are the second team most frequently refereed by Maresca in his career after Lazio, with 20 previous encounters yielding 9 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats. Notably, Maresca previously oversaw a clash between these same opponents: in the 2017–18 season, he refereed Roma's 3–0 home win against Torino. Most significantly, the last match Maresca officiated involving Roma was the derby against Lazio, a 2–0 victory for the Giallorossi. Torino's record with Maresca is less favourable than Roma's. The Piedmontese side has 15 previous encounters with the referee, posting 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats. Torino's last victory under Maresca came in the previous season, a 4–1 win over Parma. For Maresca, this will be another meeting with two sides he has refereed many times before, with the specific head-to-head history between Roma and Torino providing encouragement for the Giallorossi.

Maresca has been appointed to referee Roma's Serie A fixture against Torino on Monday at 18:30. Tegoni and Fontani will serve as assistant referees, Sozza as fourth official, and Aureliano at VAR. Maresca has nineteen previous matches involving Roma, with a record of 8 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats for the Giallorossi—a slight advantage but marked by several controversies. His last Roma appointment came on 17 May last season, when Roma won the Derby della Capitale with a brace from Mancini.

Maresca will take charge of Torino's Serie A match against Roma on Monday 14 September at 18:30, kick-off time 18:30. The fixture is the fourth round of the league campaign. Maresca will be assisted by Tegoni and Fontani, with Sozza as fourth official. Aureliano will operate as VAR, and Ghersini as AVAR. The full set of match officials for the upcoming round of Serie A fixtures has been confirmed.
