Brighton vs AS Roma Prediction & Betting Tips (14 March)

Dryly beaten in Rome last week 4-0, Brighton does not have many illusions about its chances of reversing the trend. The Seagulls will still try to score quickly to ignite the match but the mission seems almost impossible. In order to reach the round of 16 of this Europa League, they resisted competition from OM, Ajax and AEK Athens to take 1st place in group B. In the Premier League, Brighton is less dazzling than during the previous exercise. Roberto De Zerbi's men still occupy an honorable 8th place in the standings and have not given up on the idea of ​​winning a European folding seat. Unfortunately for them, they had been progressing at a slow pace for a few weeks, 2 wins in the last 8 days, but they were able to get rid of the poorly ranked Nottingham Forest 1-0. Roma has already taken a very serious option on the quarter-finals by crushing Brighton in the first leg 4-0.

The Louve club fully deserved this result and demonstrated the quality of its squad compared to that of its opponent. The Giallorossi have revived since the arrival on the bench of Daniele De Rossi in January. Under the orders of Jose Mourinho, they did not shine during the group stage 2nd behind Slavia Prague and it was with De Rossi that they dismissed Feyenoord in the qualifying play-off following penalties. In the championship, Roma is making a spectacular recovery in the standings which allows them to quickly return to the Top 4. Paulo Dybala's teammates had won 6 times in the last 7 days before being held in check on the field of Fiorentina this weekend 2-2.

Brighton still has to deal with several important packages this week. In addition to the Japanese winger Mitoma, whose season is already over, we find in the infirmary the striker Joao Pedro, the winger March, the experienced Milner and the promising full-back Hinshelwood. The Seagulls foundered in Rome last weekend with defenders Van Hecke, Dunk and Igor completely missing out. Offensively, winger Adingra (6 goals in the PL) was the most active element while Danny Welbeck was not happy but was able to demonstrate the quality of his heading game. In the middle, takes place the German international Gross (4 goals and 10 assists in PL). Roma is only deprived of the English striker Tammy Abraham.

Long injured, he is close to a return and should return to the pitch after the international break. Daniele De Rossi decided to field his usual squad in the first leg. We are thinking in particular of attackers Dybala (12 goals and 7 assists in SA) and Lukaku (7 goals in C3, 10 goals and 3 assists in SA) who both scored. Passed in front of the experienced Rui Patricio in the hierarchy, the Serbian goalkeeper Svilar made some important saves while the midfielders Cristante, Paredes and Pellegrini worked well in the midfield. To see if a turnover is put in place after the clear victory acquired in the first leg.
