AS Roma are set to take on Rangers in the Europa League. Both teams are looking to bounce back from poor Europa League, starts with Roma 23rd and Rangers last out of 36 teams. Roma are still the favourites due to there much better league form, but the game won’t be easy.

Playing away to Rangers is never easy, no matter of their form. Roma are also weak in the attack with Paulo Dybala, Leon Bailey and Evan Ferguson all suffering injuries. This will make their already struggling attack face more challanges. This could be critical as Roma need to pick up all three points.

Roma will also be looking to bounce back on the weekends loss to AC Milan. They could’ve gone two points clear at the top with a victory. But this wasn’t to be as Gasperini side struggled to find the back of the net. Hopefully, he can motivate them to play hard and earn all three points today.

Predicted Lineups (3-4-2-1) via One Football

Mile Svilar

Gianluca Mancini, Evan Ndicka, Mario Hermoso

Zeki Celik, Bryan Cristante, Manu Kone, Konstantions Tsimikas

Mattias Soule, Manuel Pellegrini

Artem Dovybk

This lineup will see Roma shift from the 3-5-2 they played against Milan. This is likely because Dovbyk has to replace Dybala, but it will also see Neil El Aynaoui drop to the bench for Manuel Pellegrini. The only other change in the team that Wesley is benched for Tsimikas, likely to give the Brazilian some rest.

Inter Milan will host Genoa today as they look to bounce back from a tough loss in the Champions League to Bodo Glimt. Bodo Glimt beat Inter over both legs including a 2-1 win at the San Siro. However, Inter are still firing winning all over their last five league matches.

Meanwhile Genoa are looking to build on a big win against Torino last weekend. This came after Genoa went winless in their last three Serie A games, including losses to Napoli and Lazio. But, travelling to the San Siro to play Inter Milan or AC Milan is always a hard task.

The last time these two sides faced off was on the 15th of December in Genoa. Inter came out flying in that game with Yann Aurel Bisseck and Lautaro Martinez scoring in the first half. Genoa would claw a goal back in a boring second half but it wouldn’t be enough to earn any points.

Predicted Lineups

Inter Milan 3-5-2:

Yann Sommer

Yann Bisseck, Francesco Acerbi, Manuel Akanji

Luís Henrique, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Piotr Zieliński, Petar Sučić, Carlos Augusto

Ange-Yoan Bonny, Marcus Thuram

Alessandro Bastoni will be rested for Inter today after scoring against Bodo Glimt, with Francesco Acerbi taking his place in the lineup. In midfield Cristian Chivu will make three changes with Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Petar Sucic and Carlos Augutso coming in, for Dimarco, Barella and Frattesi. Meanwhile it will be an all french striker partnership with Ange-Yoan Bonny and Marcus Thuram.

Genoa – 3-5-2:

Justin Bijlow

Alessandro Marcandalli, Leo Østigård, Johan Vásquez

Mikael Ellertsson, Ruslan Malinovskyi, Morten Frendrup, Tommaso Baldanzi, Aarón Martín

Vítor Ferreira, Lorenzo Colombo

Genoa will use an unchanged defence from the side that kept a clean sheet against Torino. Brooke Norton-Cuffy will drop to the bench for Aarón Martin, being the only change in midfield. Caleb Ekuban will drop to the bench despite scoring against Torino for Vitor Ferreira.

Hellas Verona are set to host Napoli this Saturday afternoon, as the season continues along. This comes as Verona are winless in their last five games, picking up only a singular draw in that time. This has left them sitting tied for last on points in Serie A with only 15 through the first 26 games.

However, they face no easy opponent with Napoli coming into town. Napoli are looking to bounce back from a slow patch being winless in their last three games. Antonio Conte will push his side to pickup all three points to get the season and Champions League qualification back on track.

Giovane Nascimento is set to return to his former side after leaving for Napoli in January. Giovane has already lit up the scene for Napoli with five assists so far, and will hope to do the same in Verona. However, he will likely have limited time to do so as he is expected to come off the bench.

Armel Bella-Kotchap, Victor Nelsson, Andrias Edmundsson

Domagoj Bradarić, Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro, Roberto Gagliardini, Abdou Harroui, Martin Frese

Despite the game being a tough one, the I Nerazzurri won’t give up on an away result. This comes as they have won their last three games including away wins against Juventus and Lazio. Raffaele Palladino has a side not afraid of traveling so they could fight for a result today.

The two sides have meet in the round of 32 before, doing so in the 2017/18 season this came in the Europa League. Dortmund lost the first leg at home 3-2 and saw out a 1-1 draw in Bergamo. These results could happen again with how the teams are currently playing.

Dortmund currently sit second in the Bundesliga table, but they are six points behind Bayern. They could decide to shift their focus to success in Europe, rather than in Germany. This would make it hard for Atalanta as they are coming off a hard win vs Lazio on Saturday.

Marco Carnesecchi

Honest Anahor, Berat Djimsiti, Giorgio Scalvini

Lorenzo Bernasconi, Marten De Roon, Ederson, Davide Zappacosta
