Roma Set to Hold Firm at Home
AS Roma enter this match unbeaten in their last five games across all competitions. They have kept the scoreline tight in most outings while averaging 2.2 goals scored and just 0.8 conceded per game. Real Madrid sit one place above them in the table after three points from one league outing and carry four wins in their last five. The head-to-head record shows Madrid winning the previous five meetings yet only two of those produced more than 2.5 goals. Roma have scored once per game so far this season at the Stadio Olimpico. Madrid remain slight favourites but their recent form includes a defeat that broke a long winning run. The key test will be whether Roma can limit Madrid’s away threat enough to avoid a two-goal margin.
