Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-0
Salzburg
Roma will look to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Verona when they take on Salzburg in the Europa League last 32, return leg. The Romans aim to overcome a one-goal deficit in front of home fans, but keep in mind that key attacker Paulo Dybala remains in the recovery room. Tammy Abraham should be fit for the return leg despite suffering a head injury in the Serie A game, while fit-again midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum should once again start from the bench.
The Red Bulls, on the other hand, did well to beat Tirol in their last league match, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry at Stadio Olimpico. Since Jose Mourinho’s troops are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we are tempted to put our money on the Serie A side. All Guindo, Okoh, Tijani, and Omoregie have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the Austrian outfit.
