Prediction: 1-0
Verona
Roma will look to put an end to their three-game winless run in the Serie A when they take on Verona in the Serie A round 21. The Giallorossi failed to impress in a 3-1 loss to AC Milan, but they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course in the Italian top flight. Both Houssem Aouar and Evan Ndicka are on international duty, whereas both Gianluca Mancini and Bryan Cristante are banned for the match.
The Mastini, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against fellow relegation strugglers Empoli and they managed to get one. Roma, though, have turned their Stadio Olimpico into a real fortress, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on Jose Mourinho’s troops. As for the away side, Ondrej Duda serves a one-game ban, while fellow midfielder Darko Lazovic remains on the sidelines through suspension. In their last meeting in the “Eternal City” Roma defeated Verona 1-0 thanks to Ola Solbakken’s goal.
