Europa League Betting Preview: Roma vs Bologna

Italian Serie A clubs Roma and Bologna square off at Stadio Olimpico in the second leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Thursday 19 March. The first leg ended 1-1.

It wouldn’t be surprising to see Roma come out on top against Bologna. Home advantage and a coach with Europa League-winning experience, as Gian Piero Gasperini famously went all the way with Atalanta two years ago, are two strong factors in their favour.

We’ll back Roma on the Full-Time Result market at -141, expecting the hosts to get the job done.

Roma were defeated in their last game. Away from home in Serie A, they suffered a 2-1 loss against Como at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. I Giallorossi recorded just 34% possession and had one shot on target, with Donyell Malen scoring the goal.

Bologna won their previous game by a 1-0 Serie A scoreline. It was away from home against Sassuolo at Stadio Mapei. Vincenzo Italiano's side had 46% possession and recorded three shots on goal, with Thijs Dallinga scoring the winner six minutes after kick-off.

Head-to-Head Statistics

Roma have gone unbeaten in their past three games against Bologna, with the first leg ending 1-1 at Stadio Renato Dell'Ara. Bologna enjoyed 51% possession and had more shots on target, leading 4-1 in that count. Federico Bernardeschi was on the scoresheet, while Lorenzo Pellegrini equalised for Roma.

The previous 10 H2H matches have included four wins for Bologna, two victories for Roma along with four draws.
