AS Roma vs FC Porto Prediction & Tips
Ranieri took a Roma side that was flirting with relegation and slowly but steadily moved them up the Italian championship table, so much so that the capital outfit are now 9th, five points off the final European play-off place in a particularly tight Serie A table.
Roma also kept the Europa League dream alive by qualifying for the playoffs, but a tough draw against Porto, but the 1-1 draw in the first leg in Portugal puts them in a good position to advance in Thursday’s rematch.
Anselmi, a new manager recently arrived from Mexico, took charge of Porto with a short but necessary 1-0 win over Farense in the Portuguese league.
Porto is looking to break a recent poor record of playing knockout stage games in UEFA matches, with the Dragons winning just five of their last 26 matches of this nature. For Anselmi, leaving Roma on the road would be a tremendous success on his arrival, as since 2025 Porto have looked short of goals and in the betting Roma have an implied probability of over 55% to beat them at the Stadio Olimpico over 90 minutes.
