    Roma host recently-promoted Brescia at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday afternoon.

    The game gets underway at 15:00 local time - we've rounded up the key statistics worth knowing before kick-off...

    Meeting 45

    Sunday's game will be the 45th meeting between the two sides. Roma have won exactly half of the preceding 44 meetings, drawing 13 and losing on just nine occasions.

    Just one Olimpico disappointment

    In 22 home games, Brescia have won just once - winning 3-2 during the 1992-93 season. Beyond that, however, Roma have won 16 times and drawn on five occasions.

    Trending one way

    Four of the last five Olimpico meetings between these two sides have ended in a draw.

    Dzeko's feeding frenzy

    Edin has scored 16 goals in his last 15 Serie A meetings with newly-promoted sides; six of those have come in games at the Stadio Olimpico.

    Edin approaching 150 Serie A games

    The Bosnian striker has made 149 appearances in Serie A for Roma. His debut came against Verona on 22 August 2015.

    Campo Testaccio opener

    The club's first-ever game at their historic home, Campo Testaccio, actually came against Brescia - on 3 November 1929. Roma won on that occasion, Rodolfo Volk and Fulvio Bernardini scoring in a 2-1 win.

    Hat-tricks on the road

    Gabriel Batistuta and Francesco Totti are the only two former Roma players to have scored a hat-trick against Brescia - although both of those came away from home.

    Goal tally

    Francesco Totti leads the all-time Roma goalscorers list against Brescia, having scored seven against the club during his Giallorossi career. Behind him there are Costantino and Guaita on four, with Batistuta, Montella, Paulo Sergio and Volk sitting on three.

    Hall of Fame appearance makers

    Fulvio Bernardini and Damiano Tommasi, both members of the club's Hall of Fame, are the two Roma players to have made the most appearances against Brescia - both facing the Lombardy side 11 times.

    Brescia on the road

    Brescia have taken seven points so far this season - six of those have come in away matches.
