Bayer Leverkusen vs. AS Roma Preview

Bayer Leverkusen

The German unit wants to finish the year without a defeat. That is it. Not only to win all three trophies but to end the season in a confident manner and enter the football history books. For the moment, they are pretty near that goal, and this event is a step towards it.

Surely, they won’t be spending too much energy here, but don’t think for one moment that Alonso isn’t planning to beat the Roma. We saw Bayer’s rage and power in Frankfurt this weekend once they defeated Eintracht 1-5.

This was the third consecutive event in which this team netted at least twice. At home, that stretch extends to 10 games, and it pretty much reveals how they play.

AS Roma

Roma has only won one game in the past five. Their form dropped in the crucial part of the season, with the Europa League finals and the Champions League spot for the upcoming season on the line.

The pressure on the domestic front is high, and De Rossi could save his players for this weekend’s Serie A game against Atalanta. This game is pretty much a deciding one in the battle for fifth place. La Dea is a direct rival to Roma.

Defense is a big problem for De Rossi, with the back line allowing at least a goal in six straight games. It has troubled Il Lupi the whole season, and Mourinho’s successor couldn’t improve it.

Bayer Leverkusen vs AS Roma Head to Head

This is going to be the fourth time in 12 months for these two sides to meet. After two games in the semis last season, we have a pair at the same stage now. Back then, Roma had more success, eliminating the Germans 1-0 on aggregate, with their win coming in Italy.

Now, Bayern carries a 2-0 edge after opening 90 minutes at the Olimpico.

Bayer Leverkusen vs. AS Roma Predictions

Leverkusen was so confident in Rome, and we don’t believe the guests can avoid a loss here. Especially because of Roma’s other problems and obligations and the fact that there might be some calculations on their end. Many things will depend upon the start, so Alonso won’t take any chances, yet go hard straight away to break the Italians and close this matchup.

Our verdict: Leverkusen wins
