Athletic Bilbao - AS Roma Europa League review

An An |

Football commentary on the match between Athletic Bilbao - AS Roma in the second leg of the Europa League round of 16.

Overview

In the first leg, AS Roma won 2-1 against Athletic Bilbao at home. It was a match in which Roma did not play too much better than the away team, but the two goals of Angelino and Shomurodov helped them have an important victory.

However, Roma still need to improve their weak finishing ability. In the first leg, they had 12 shots and 5 on target, but had to wait until Athletic Bilbao lost a player to get a late goal from Shomurodov in extra time.

The trip to San Mames will be many times more difficult for the Italian representative. At home, Athletic Bilbao is having a perfect record in this year's Europa League.

Athletic Bilbao will have a problem with personnel when center back Yeray Alvarez is suspended in this match after a red card in the first leg. In addition, coach Ernesto Valverde's team also needs to improve their finishing like Roma. They had 16 shots in the first leg, but only 1 of them hit the opponent's goal.

If Athletic Bilbao have won all home matches in the Europa League this season, Roma have yet to taste away victory in the tournament. It is likely that this will be a narrow and dramatic victory for the Spanish team.

Notably, Roma is currently the team with the most wins in Europa League history, with 97 wins in 185 matches. With a historic advantage when advancing in all 9 recent knockout matches in European cups after winning the first leg, Roma also have the right to be confident.

Personnel situation

Athletic Bilbao are not concerned about any new injuries ahead of this match, despite Alvarez being suspended.

On the other side of the front line, AS Roma also have a nearly full squad. Only Mehmet Zeki Celik was sidelined through injury.

Expected lineup:

Bilbao: Simon, Gorosabel, Vivian, Paredes, Boiro, Jaureguizar, Prados, Berenguer, Canales, N. Williams, Guruzeta.

Roma: Svilar, Ndicka, Hummels, Nelsson, Salah-Eddine, Kone, Paredes, Abdulhamid, Pellegrini, Soule, Shomurodov.

The match between Athletic Bilbao and Roma takes place at 0:45 am on March 14 (Vietnam time).
