Roma vs Bayer Leverkusen 02.05.2024 Prediction: UEFA Europa League
Match Overview
Roma and Bayer Leverkusen meet each other in the first leg of their semifinal in the UEFA Europa League at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome on May 2, Thursday. Rome have an upper hand over their opponents in this game despite the latter being crowned the champions of Germany this year led by their talismanic manager Xabi Alonso.
Key Highlights
While Roma have been unbeaten in four out of the last five matches that they have played, Leverkusen have won just two out of their last five. This means that Roma have momentum and form going their way, which should be enough to see them coast to a comfortable and memorable win in the end.
Injury Report
Chris Smalling and Romelu Lukaku will be unavailable for Roma in this game whereas Leverkusen will have to make do without the services of Adam Hlozek and Borja Iglesias among others.
Prediction
Despite Roma being the clear favourites over their opponents, we expect BTTS (both teams to score) as Leverkusen are known to come back from tough positions and yet make good use of their wings. Roma will have to hold their defensive shape extremely well to not get caught up in the tangle that Leverkusen usually get their opponents into.
