The starting lineup for each team in their last match in this tournament is listed.

Tottenham

The Londoners started the Europa League group stage excellently, winning three consecutive matches. However, in their last match, the team traveled to Galatasaray and suffered their first defeat (2-3). Notably, the team played the last half-hour 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). The English side has dropped to seventh place, but they are only one point behind the five clubs occupying the second to sixth positions.

Forward William Lancashire will miss the encounter 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 games.
• The club has not conceded in the first half in seven previous home matches in this tournament.

Roma

The Romans are only in 20th place in the Europa League group stage standings. The team has five points, earned in the following matches: a victory over Dynamo Kyiv (1-0), and 1-1 draws against Athletic and Union. The club also lost away to Elfsborg (0-1). Notably, only four teams have scored fewer goals in the group stage than Roma (3 goals).

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

Tottenham vs. Roma: Match Prediction

The English side should defeat the Romans in the upcoming match. The Romans, in their current state, are unable to compete on equal terms with serious opponents. Roma is showing weak performances even in their domestic league, where after 13 rounds, they are only in 12th place, scoring an average of about 1.1 goals per match. Despite recently changing their head coach (the second time this season), the Italians lost to Napoli (0-1) over the weekend.

Unlike their opponents, who struggle to capitalize on their few chances, Tottenham scores a lot in the Premier League – averaging about 2.2 goals (the best attack in the league). Last weekend, the Londoners thrashed Manchester City away with a 4-0 scoreline. The team is in excellent form and has great chances to finish the group stage among the top eight, but to do so, they should avoid dropping points at home. The club will face two challenging away matches against Rangers and Hoffenheim next.

It is worth mentioning that the London club has won eight consecutive Europa League matches at home, with clean sheets in the last seven. My prediction: Tottenham to Win
