Our Tips

Tottenham Hotspur are set to host Roma in a Europa League showdown that carries significant implications for both sides. The stakes are particularly high for Spurs, who, after a thrilling 4-0 thrashing of Manchester City at the weekend, will look to maintain their momentum against a Roma side seemingly drowning in chaos. For Roma, who are languishing in 12th in Serie A and face a daunting away fixture list, this represents an uphill battle to save their European campaign. Will Tottenham’s rampant attack overrun their beleaguered opponents, or can Roma pull off a much-needed upset?

Best Bet: Tottenham -1 to Win

Backing Tottenham to overcome a -1 handicap seems the standout wager for this clash, given the gulf in form and quality between the two teams. Spurs’ attacking prowess has been on full display, particularly in their dominant performance against Manchester City, where they scored four without reply. That result showcased their ability to dismantle even elite defences, and Roma’s fragile backline is likely to struggle under similar pressure.

Roma’s vulnerabilities are clear. They’ve won just two of their last ten matches in all competitions and have a woeful record on the road this season. Nine away matches without a win underline their struggles, with defeats to modest opposition such as Elfsborg and Union Saint-Gilloise further highlighting their frailty. With Tottenham boasting an impressive home run in the Europa League—seven consecutive wins without conceding—this appears to be a mismatch.

The absence of first-choice centre-backs Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven hasn’t hampered Spurs much, as stand-ins Radu Dragusin and Ben Davies impressed in their victory against City. Fraser Forster, deputising for the injured Guglielmo Vicario, also provides a safe pair of hands in goal. Spurs have managed two clean sheets in their Europa League campaign so far, which adds weight to the expectation of a comprehensive victory.

Roma, meanwhile, are still adjusting under Claudio Ranieri, whose pragmatic 4-4-2 approach looked ineffective in a 1-0 loss to Napoli. With limited time to impose his philosophy, Ranieri faces the daunting task of halting a Tottenham side full of confidence. Even their star players, such as Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini, appear to be struggling for form and fitness.

“Given Roma’s dismal away record and Tottenham’s recent surge in confidence, this is the perfect opportunity for Spurs to stamp their authority on the Europa League,” says BettingTips4You.com expert Steve Harrington. “A -1 handicap feels like a solid value bet, with Spurs expected to dominate from start to finish.”

Correct Score Prediction: Tottenham 3-0 Roma

Building on the rationale for Tottenham to win with a handicap, a 3-0 scoreline seems a logical prediction. Spurs’ attacking depth is a nightmare for a Roma defence that has leaked goals all season. James Maddison is in scintillating form, fresh off a brace against City, and should be instrumental again. Dominic Solanke, with his physical presence and ability to finish in tight spaces, is another potent weapon who could exploit Roma’s lack of defensive organisation.

Roma’s inability to score away from home is another critical factor. They’ve netted just three goals in four Europa League matches, a pitiful return that highlights their lack of cutting edge. Against a Spurs side that has kept seven consecutive home clean sheets in the competition, it’s hard to envisage them breaching the hosts’ defence.

Ranieri’s defensive setup may temporarily frustrate Tottenham, but once the first goal arrives, it’s likely to open the floodgates. With Maddison pulling the strings and Solanke eager to add to his Europa League tally, Spurs are well-equipped to secure a resounding victory.
