Roma vs Borussia Monchengladbach Predictions

This Thursday, Rome’s Stadio Olimpico will see AS Roma host Borussia Monchengladbach in the UEFA Europa League. Roma are yet to taste defeat in this season’s Europa League, taking 4 points from their opening 2 games.

In contrast, Monchengladbach are still looking for their first win of this season’s Europa League competition. They have taken just 1 point from their opening 2 games of this campaign.

Roma have been in impressive form in recent times. Their impressive European form leaves them at the top of Group J after their first 2 games. They are currently 3 points clear of Borussia Monchengladbach. 

Monchengladbach have underperformed in Europe this season. Marco Rose’s side are currently sitting at the top of the Bundesliga, after winning 5 of their opening 8 games of the Bundesliga season. 

They have won more games in the Bundesliga than any other team, thus far, this season. However, Monchengladbach have not been able to translate their domestic success into similar success in Europe this season. We feel that it will be tough for them to turn their poor European form around in this Thursday’s trip to Roma. 

Roma have impressively lost just 1 of their last 19 games in all competitions. They will face a Monchengladbach side who have never really fared well in Europe. Monchengladbach have won just 1 of their last 8 Europa League games. They have also failed to win 8 of their last 12 Europa League away games. 

Both of these teams will be carrying plenty of injuries heading into Thursday’s game. The team who copes the best with their injury problems may come out on top of this game. We are giving the edge to Roma in this Thursday’s game. Roma have been enjoying a much more impressive run of form than Monchengladbach in Europe of late.

Furthermore, while Monchengladbach have been the Bundesliga’s best team this season, Roma have been very difficult to beat in all competitions in recent times. We feel that Roma, draw no bet is worth looking at for this game. We feel that it will be very difficult for Monchengladbach to take all 3 points from this game. 

Both teams have scored in 6 of Roma’s 10 competitive games this season. Monchengladbach have also scored at least 1 goal in 4 of their last 5 games in all competitions. We feel that a 2-1 win for Roma could be a likely result of this Thursday’s game.
