• Competition: Europe League
• Date: 09.11.2023
• Kickoff: 17:45 UK / 18:45 CET
• Venue: Fortuna Arena (Prague)

Slavia Prague, one of the top Czech clubs and undisputedly the country’s best for the past five years, is aiming to secure a spot in the Europa League knockout phase, a notable achievement. Their match rival, Roma, aside, Slavia Prague was fortunate with the draw of their opponents, as Servette and Sheriff are comparatively weaker teams on paper. Slavia’s routine victories over these teams have demonstrated that it is much nearer to securing one of the top two positions.

Roma secured a significant win over Lecce in Serie A, partially making up for their loss to Inter in the derby. They currently sit 7th in the domestic league. In the Europa League, they are experiencing no issues in their group. Roma defeated Slavia Prague 2-0 ten days ago and Servette 4-0 before that. Considering their 2-1 first-round victory over Sheriff, it’s highly likely they will maintain their 1st place position and advance directly to the 1/8 finals. They only need to secure 1 point in Prague to achieve this result.

Slavia Prague vs Roma Pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

The odds of victory for both teams are fairly balanced, though the Italian team, Roma, holds a slight edge in terms of quality. Roma has had a stronger season and boasts players with more European competition experience. However, Czech clubs, like Slavia, are known for their superior home game performance. Despite Slavia’s recent loss to Plzen in Prague, they had previously gone over 30 home matches undefeated. This match is one where both teams could be content with one point, which is the perspective you should adopt. In this duel, neither team will be overly aggressive in their attacks or desperate to score. Therefore, a low scoring game is quite plausible.
