AS Roma vs Plzen Prediction & Betting tips
After an interim crisis with six games without victory, the AS Roma returned back to winning ways. On Tuesday Viktoria Pilsen is the Czech champion waiting for the Romans. The bookmakers clearly favor the team from Italy. In this article we highlight both teams from the group G. AS Roma has clearly lost the opening match in the premier class against Real Madrid and also in the championship they occupy only one place in the midfield. Plzen have scored one point against CSKA Moscow and thus finished third in the Champions League Group G. In the domestic championship they have after ten rounds 24 points in the account and prove due to the worse goal difference only the second place ranking. In the second match of the Champions League between Roma and Viktoria Pilsen a tip on the home team is almost inevitable.
AS Roma:
Eusebio Di Francesco seems to have led his team back to winning ways. Already in the last season the AS Roma had an intermediate low and lived through seven games in a row without victory. This season, the Romans had to endure six games without success after the opening victory against Turin FC. The AS Roma conceded in Serie A defeats against AC Milan and Bologna. In the duels with Chievo Verona and Atalanta Bergamo it was only enough for one point. Also in the premier class was defeated AS Roma Real Madrid 3: 0.
But at last the Romans convinced again! Against the promoted from Frosinone they got a safe 4: 0-success and also prevailed in the city derby against Lazio Rome, the AS. Despite the poor performance of the seven Serie A games, the footballers from the eternal city scored an average of two goals per game. These goals are shared by El Shaarawy, Fazio, Kolarov and Pastore, who all scored twice. Pastore was last injured against Lazio injured and Di Francesco assumes that the Argentine will also be absent on Tuesday in the Champions League.
Last year’s top scorer Edin Dzeko is not yet in his usual form. Since the opening game against Turin FC, the Bosnian has been without a goal! But Viktoria Pilsen seems to be lying to him; Two years ago he scored three goals in home game! Also in the last season of the premier class, the striker was very successful with eight goals. On Tuesday, the betting base expects at least one strike from the striker.
Viktoria Plzen:
In the past season, Viktoria Pilsen fought until the knockout round of the Europa League. Against Sporting Lisbon, the Czechs failed only in extra time. Thanks to the championship title last season and the better ranking of the Czech league, Pilsen qualified directly for the group stage of the Champions League. Thus Viktoria Pilsen denies since 2013/14 for the first time again games in the premier class. However, the Czechs have been awarded a hammer group with the defending champion in the favorites role. In the opening match against CSKA Moscow, the Vrba-Elf confirmed their home strength. Already at break, they were 2-0 in the lead. The Muscovites still compensated for the match in the second half.
All five home games in the league have won Pilsen with a goal difference of 10: 1! On the other hand, the Czech champions are not as strong away as in the domestic Doosan Arena. Away, Viktoria Pilsen had to defeat twice. Against Slavia Prague they conceded four goals and in the duel with Jablonec the champions took three hits; Pilsen celebrated no goal in any game. Should Viktoria Pilsen lose the match in Rome without scoring a goal.
