AS Roma vs Plzen Prediction & Tips
After winning 4-0 with Frosinone and especially for 3-1 in the derby with Lazio, signed by Pellegrini, Kolarov and Fazio, Roma is on the hunt for points to get back on the trail of Real Madrid. In the debut race at the “Bernabeu” there was no match, but the draw between CSKA Moscow and Viktoria Plzen is the best result for the Giallorossi. The bomber Krmencik had brought the Czechs to double advantage, but the Russians had the strength to get back to 95 ‘with Vlasic and avoid the defeat. Viktoria leads the Czech league with Slavia Prague, but the country’s top division still does not have a real master, even if it has in Krmencik, top scorer of the last tournament, a real bomber. It will be him to drive the 4-2-3-1 of Vrba from the first minute, while Kopic, Kovarik and the playmaker Horava will act behind him. Eusebio Di Francesco has the usual double run-off on the exteriors, but El Sharaawy and Under are favorites on Kluivert and Perotti, the latter not the best. Very likely that Dzeko will come back to Schick in the role of strikers.
Roma are 14th in the FIFA ranking, CSKA Moscow is number 31.
7 of the last 8 internal official matches of the Giallorossi ended with at least 3 goals.
Plzen have suffered at least one goal in 7 of the 8 European away matches, including 4-1 with Roma in 2016.
The Italian teams lead 5-1 in the previous 10 with the Czech ones.
Roma are back from 5 consecutive victories at home in the Champions League.
Real Madrid aside, it is certainly not an impossible group for Roma, as long as the Giallorossi play as they know. The team is recovering and both Viktoria Plzen and CSKA Moscow should not be an obstacle, especially at home.
