Meeting statistics

The current form of Tottenham Hotspur F.C.

The “Lilywhites”, who are now in seventh place with nine points, may go one step closer to the knockout stages with a victory over Roma. Bookmakers believe they can do so, as they are 1.71 for the moneyline win on Wir Wetten; Their rivals are 4.16.

Tottenham recently defeated Manchester City 4-0 in the English Premier League to boost their confidence to the highest limits. But they haven’t always been constant in their form. Recent defeats to Galatasaray and Ipswich revealed certain flaws. With two goals or more in four of their previous five games, Ange Postecoglou’s squad has been a formidable offensive force. Spurs have only kept two clean sheets in their previous 10 games in all competitions, one of which came in their already mentioned thrilling victory at the Etihad on Saturday night.

Spurs will be without Micky van de Ven and Richarlison due to injuries, as well as Will Lankshear, who’s suspended. After missing recent games, Cristian Romero might make a comeback, giving the defense a much-needed boost. The Argentine player’s availability is subject to updates.

The current form of AS Roma

With just one victory, “Giallorossi” (the “Yellow and Reds”) are somewhere in the middle of the Europa League standings, therefore, the stakes are enormous for them.

Unlike Tottenham, Roma are having much more trouble with their form. They didn’t feel the sweetness of a victory in four straight games, and appeared disorganized in their most recent loss under Claudio Ranieri. Their performances have been harmed by defensive mistakes and a lack of game creation. The crisis remained, even though the Italian team may have tried to stabilize the situation by appointing the former Leicester City manager earlier in the month. Given that the Italian powerhouses have only earned one point from their last four games in all competitions, Ranieri undoubtedly has a big task ahead of him at the Stadio Olimpico. Roma, who are now fighting to get out of the bottom half of the Serie A rankings, are also known for their obvious problems when on the road. In fact, Thursday’s guests haven’t won a single game in an away game since the end of April, which has turned into a notorious rut.

Roma have reservations over the playing availability of Alexis Saelemaekers (ankle injury) and Mario Hermoso, though the latter is expected to return. After making a brief appearance in his team’s most recent game, Paulo Dybala might start in North London, while Eldor Shomurodov won’t be available until December.

Head-to-head

These two have never met in an official game before. Roma lead 2-1 in head-to-head as far as informal encounters.

Match analytics

Thanks to their recent success and greater attacking capabilities, Tottenham should have the advantage over a Roma team that’s still getting used to Ranieri. Spurs should win easily because of their ability to control the ball and generate opportunities. Their skill and self-assurance should carry them through.
