Roma are the team that has earned the most points at home (30) in this Serie A, while Milan are the team that have won the most away (28). Roma are unbeaten in 16 league home games (12V, 4N), best series for Roma since February 2017, when they reached 24 home games without defeat. Milan lost four games in 2021 in Serie A: two more than in the whole of 2020; only in 1936 did he come to five defeats considering the first two months of the year. AC Milan could lose three games in a row to score any Serie A goals for the first time since April 1967. Roma’s Jordan Veretout has scored nine goals in Serie A this season and could become the first French midfielder to double-digit goals in a single season in the top European leagues since 2018/19, in which three have succeeded: Pogba, Thauvin and Oudin. Roma forward Edin Dzeko has run out of goals in his last six Serie A appearances: worst streak for the Bosnian since January 2019 when he missed nine games, his worst in Serie A.
