Roma vs Sheriff prediction – Betting tips & odds

Hot Tip – Roma to win

  • Roma have won three of their five Europa League games this season, including a 2-1 win away to Sheriff back in September.

Player to Watch: Romelu Lukaku

After years of doing the business in front of goal for Roma’s Serie A rivals Inter Milan, Romelu Lukaku has continued to impress under Mourinho.

Belgium's all-time top scorer has seven goals in 13 games for Roma this season and has also secured four in five goals in the Europa League – only Brighton's Joao Pedro and Marseille's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have scored more than them.
