    In Stats: Pellegrini provides yet again


    Roma returned to action on Wednesday night with a dramatic late victory over Sampdoria, thanks to two fantastic goals from Edin Dzeko.

    The Giallorossi ran out 2-1 winners at the Stadio Olimpico - here are a few key statistics from the game!

    1

    Carles Pérez started his first Serie A game for the Giallorossi - while Roger Ibanez made his first start for the club in all competitions.

    3

    Roma made it three wins in succession with the triumph on Wednesday, the second time this season they have reached such a streak. The last one, however, came back in November.

    9

    Only Luis Alberto (13) and Alejandro Gómez (11) have now provided more assists than Lorenzo Pellegrini (9) this season - the Italy international added another last night, his fourth of the campaign for Edin Dzeko.

    11

    Edin Dzeko has been involved in 11 games in his last 10 appearances for the club in Serie A: eight goals and three assists in that span.

    13

    Roma have now got on the scoresheet in 13 straight games in the league. The last time the club managed a streak as long as that was back in the 2016-17 season, when Luciano Spalletti's side managed goals in 15 straight games.

    15

    Roma had 15 first-half shots on Wednesday night; you have to go back to December 2017 for the last time the side managed as many in the opening 45 minutes (24 against SPAL).

    89

    No player managed more passes forward last night than Jordan Veretout (89).

    104

    Edin Dzeko is now up to 104 goals for the Giallorossi, drawing him level with Pedro Manfredini in fifth position on the club's list of all-time leading goalscorers.
