Jose Mourinho is one football manager who really knows how to play mind games and in so many times had his mind games really helped him to conquer and succeed in football.
Roma already knows it'll be almost difficult to finish in the top four of the Italian so they'll definitely want to manage the remaining league fixtures as much as they can while saving energy for the UEFA Europa League final
With Mourinho, you can not ask him to let his players play a sexy football and get a defeat or a draw. With him, results are what he want and a win is his most favorite result. Draw is not bad but if he can win, he will do his best to win. This style goes along with a long career of Mourinho even at big clubs like Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid where Mourinho was not lack of star players and quality substitutions.
At Roma, he does not have it so more reasons make him does not let Roma playing with sexy football.
Roma will play an away match to Fiorentina this week and this is a very important match for Roma to maintain its position in the conference league zone or get closer to the European league and even the champions league if they can win the remaining two matches. But it seems that Roma will not be too serious for the match against Fiorentina because they will play the European league final next week and do not want to suffer losses such as player fatigue or injuries that their players get through this match.
Fiorentina will not be defeated easily at their home and they are another club from Serie A to play in final match in Europe. They are another Roma from Serie A in Conference League, a replacement of Roma in EUFA Conference League final match. Both clubs will have to think of their final matches and they will not use all their best players as they know what match is more important. With Roma, 4 points less than AC Milan when Serie A only has two more match days are nearly impossible to equalized. They nearly give up in Serie A and will focus on the final match with Sevilla.
It looks like Mourinho will be more aiming at a draw rather than losing to Fiorentina, we know that this season Fiorentina is also quite brilliant because it managed to reach the final of the conference league this season. My prediction is that the score will end 1-1 equally for both teams and I will bet a handicap of 0.75 with odds @1.56 for Roma's advantage.
In a latest press conference, Mourinho told that he will use some kids for the match but he knows it will be big challenge for those kids and Roma to play against Fiorentina, home away. I believe Mourinho wants to have a draw but he won't feel too disappointed if Roma get a defeat.
