Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Roma vs. Bayer Leverkusen at Europa League by [our-site]

  • Where: Olimpico, Rome, Italy
  • When: Friday, May 3, 03:00 AM

Roma hosts Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of the Europa League semis. The Italian side is hyped up because of the prospects of reaching another continental finals, while on the other side, Bayer is living its dream season. Lever has managed to win the domestic title for the first time in its history, but on the other hand, it has a chance to win two more trophies. As for Roma, this would be their third consecutive finals in Europe, which would establish this unit as one of the most successful in the past few years.

Roma vs. Bayer Leverkusen Preview

Roma 

A 2-2 tie against Napoli on the road was a solid introduction for the upcoming event, but we do need to say that Il Lupi didn’t look very good in this contest. Napoli exposed too many problems in defense. If it weren’t for the Serbian goalkeeper Svilar and the lack of composure of Napoli’s strikers, De Rossi’s guys would lose this one for sure. 

The team from the Italian capital has looked solid in recent weeks. Over the latest ten events, they won five, tied three, and lost two. Yet when looking at the home results, the situation is different, with Roma having eight wins in the previous ten matches at the Olimpico.

In the same number of games, we saw them netting two or more goals while keeping clean sheets on four occasions. 

Bayer Leverkusen

We are pretty sure that Leverkusen scored a double-digit number of goals in stoppage time. The latest such situation took place this weekend when they kept the invincibility status with a late hit against Stuttgart, 2-2. They are still the only team in Europe’s top five leagues without a loss during the campaign.

However, after eight wins in a row, Lever did slow down a little bit, posting three consecutive ties against Werder 1-1, Dortmund on the road, with the same result, and now Stuttgart.

Just one of their previous five outings hasn’t seen both teams netting, and that has been the case since the year began. Also, Bayer scored two or more goals in most of those clashes.

Roma vs Bayer Leverkusen Head to Head

Roma and Bayer also played in the Europa League semis last year. This is very interesting. Back then, the Italians had more success, winning 1-0 at home and then keeping that edge with a tie in Germany, 0-0. 

Roma vs. Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

Roma plays efficient games, and so does Leverkusen. When looking at their respective stats and recent results, three goals with both teams netting is the only logical pick for this event. 

Our verdict: Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals
