AS Roma Team News
Roma has been struggling in Serie A lately. After a spectacular victory at the Olimpico in the return leg against Feyenoord, they failed to win in four consecutive league matches. As a result, they are in seventh place on the table, with five points less than the position that guarantees a place in the group stage of the Champions League next season.
However, they still have a chance to qualify for the Champions League with a victory in the Europa League. Roma is currently only two games away from reaching the final of this competition, but they face a tough challenge in the semifinals against Leverkusen, who are currently in good form.
Nevertheless, Mourinho’s team has performed very well in European competitions at home. Although they recently suffered disappointing defeats against Inter and Atalanta in Serie A, how Roma plays at the Olimpico.
