Prediction (Win/Draw): Draw
Roma are an analytical nightmare. On expected goals, Roma have the second-best attack in Serie A and the best defense. Yet their finishing has been an utter disaster all season and the defense has conceded over 50 percent more goals than it should based on xGA.
They clobbered Hellas Verona on the road in league play and whalloped Ludogorets in the second half of their must-win Europa League match midweek. And then, a duck against Lazio at home. Playing at MAPEI Stadium has been problematic for Roma, without a win since May of 2018. This game could go either way, but it won’t be decided until the second half.
