AS Roma has shown significant offensive improvement during the early stages of the 2025/26 Serie A season, scoring 23 goals in the first nine matches compared to 10 during the same period the previous year. This surge is attributed to a tactical system under manager Gasperini that utilizes young talent, including players such as Lulli, Pisilli, Ghilardi, and Rodrigo Mora.

Matias Soulé has emerged as a key contributor, recording 3 goals and 3 assists across 770 minutes of league and Champions League play. His performance, which includes crucial late goals against Atalanta and Napoli, has aided the team's attacking verticality and defensive pressing.
