Tottenham

The Londoners started the Europa League group stage strongly with three consecutive victories. However, in their last match, they traveled to Galatasaray and suffered their first defeat (2-3). Notably, they played the last 30 minutes with ten men. This was only their second loss in regular time in their last 12 matches in this European competition (9 wins and 1 draw). Tottenham has dropped to seventh place but is just one point behind the group of five clubs occupying second to sixth places.

Forward William Lancashire will miss the match due to suspension.

• At least one team failed to score in regular time in 5 of Tottenham's last 7 Europa League matches.
• The Londoners opened the scoring in 7 of their last 9 Europa League matches.
• The club has not conceded in the first half in their last seven home matches in this tournament.

Roma

Roma currently sits in 20th position in the Europa League group stage standings. The team has accumulated five points from the following matches: a win against Dynamo Kyiv (1-0) and 1-1 draws against Athletic and Union. They also lost away to Elfsborg (0-1). Notably, only four teams have scored fewer goals than Roma (3 goals) in the group stage.

• The number "1" appeared in the final score in 7 of Roma's last 9 games in this tournament.
• A maximum of two goals were scored in 7 of Roma's last 9 Europa League matches.
• One team won with a clean sheet in the first half in 9 of Roma's last 10 Europa League matches.

Tottenham vs. Roma: Match Prediction

The English side is expected to defeat Roma in the upcoming match. Roma, in their current form, is unable to compete on equal terms with strong opponents. They have been underperforming even in their domestic league, where they sit 12th after 13 rounds, averaging around 1.1 goals per match. Despite a recent managerial change (their second this season), Roma lost to Napoli (0-1) over the weekend.

In contrast, Tottenham is prolific in the Premier League, averaging about 2.2 goals per match (the best attack in the league). Last weekend, they convincingly defeated Manchester City 4-0 away. The team is in excellent form and has a strong chance of finishing in the top eight of the group stage, but they must avoid dropping points at home. They have two challenging away games against Rangers and Hoffenheim coming up.

Additionally, Tottenham has won their last eight consecutive home matches in the Europa League, with clean sheets in the last seven. My prediction: Tottenham Victory
