Roma vs Salzburg Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League

Home team Roma goes into this game holding the favorites’ tag, with bookies offering 1.73 for a home win, while Salzburg have odds of 5.75 for a win, then a draw comes with odds of 4.00.

Roma seemed to be holding on for an away draw when they faced Salzburg away from home but they conceded a late goal to lose 1-0. They did recover with a 1-0 win at home to Verona in the Serie A and will hope the slim win inspires them going into this game. Roma needs to win by more than a goal here to advance but the main issue is that they’ve managed more than a goal in just one of their last five matches. All of their last four matches have had under 2.5 goals and having been dumped out of the Coppa Italia already, Roma will be keen to stay in this competition. Roma should be able to turn on the style at home, where they’ve done well in recent times. In their 2023 schedule at home, they have played six matches, and won five. They also have five clean sheets in their last six home matches. Roma have scored in all their last six home matches and this good run at home extends to the Europa League as well. They have one loss only in 15 Europa League games at home and won 10 in that period. In their last four home matches in this competition, Roma have scored three goals three times.

Salzburg dropped from the Champions League and will hope to employ that experience to advance here. In their last six matches, Salzburg are unbeaten in normal time. Their lead was courtesy of Nicolas Capaldo’s late goal and they will want to protect their slim lead. They will find it tough against Roma, and especially given they haven't done well in this competition. In the last five Europa League games, Salzburg have one win and have conceded two or more in four of the five. Salzburg have four straight away losses in the Europa League, conceding two or more goals in each of them. Meanwhile, they have no clean sheet in the last 11 away Europa League matches.
