ROME, April 24 (Xinhua) -- Serie A administrators insisted that the Fiorentina's home match against Roma on May 4 should be rescheduled to avoid risks.

The game at Stadio Artemio Franchi was originally meant to be played on Saturday May 4 at 19:45 GMT.

But Lega Calcio officials have released a statement insisting that will be changed due to past incidences between fans.

"The game is at risk with regard to public order," it read. "The rivalry between the two sets of supporters has already resulted in fierce clashes in the past.

"Critically, that will be accentuated with an evening kick off," it said.
