Roma Betting Preview
Roma faced off against AC Milan in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Europa League and they were able to advance 3-1 on aggregate. In the last game, they were able to win 2-1. They had only 36 percent of the possession and three shots on target, but two of them found the back of the net. On Sunday, AS Roma faced off against Napoli, and they played to a 2-2 draw. It took until the 88th minute but Tommy Abraham tied the game up. They had 52 percent of the possession and four shots on target. Zeki Celik was sent off with a red card against AC Milan and that means he’s suspended for this game. Diego Llorente and Leandro Paredes were both suspended over the weekend but they are back now. Romelu Lukaku was hurt but he’s back in training and he could play here.
Leverkusen Betting Preview
Leverkusen faced off against West Ham United in the Europa League quarterfinals and they were able to advance because of their 3-1 advantage on aggregate. In the last game it was a 1-1 draw but the aggregate was still enough. On Saturday in the Bundesliga against VfB Stuttgart, they played to a 2-2 draw. They actually fell behind 2-0 but they were able to tie it up. Amine Adili scored in the 61st minute while Robert Andrich tied up in the 96th minute. Granit Xhaka was dealing with a suspension but that’s over now and he should have an impact in this game. This is a team that is pretty healthy and Adam Hlozek and Borja Iglesias are the only two injury doubts at this point.
Roma vs Leverkusen Betting Prediction
Leverkusen is the better team and they have done a good job of scoring goals, especially late in the game. Against West Ham, they scored two goals in the first game and they are going to get the offense out to a fast start here. AS Roma is going to struggle to even score a goal here, and that will be the difference here as Leverkusen is going to get the job done. Back Leverkusen on the money line.
