Jose Mourinho and AS Roma have a one-goal edge before their rematch of the UEFA Europa League semis in Leverkusen against Bayer.
Before Betting on Bayer Leverkusen vs. AS Roma
The hosts are without a victory for the previous four games, having two draws and two losses. Before this negative streak, Leverkusen was playing top football and was in the best form of all the Bundesliga teams.
Bayer’s problems over the past few weeks were in the attack, with the strikers having problems delivering. That’s why we saw the Germans scoring just three goals throughout the recent four events. In the earlier part of the year, the offense was always the better part of the crew.
Roma and Mourinho are in problems, with more than a third of the players on the roster having minor or major injuries. Even the Portuguese head coach himself spoke about the lack of depth for two competitions at the same time.
That’s the reason for Roma’s poor performances lately, with the team having only one victory in the last six events. That was against Bayer in Rome, 1-0. By the way, the past five events this squad played were under 2.5 scores.

This will be a low-efficient event due to Mourinho’s ultra-defensive tactics, which he always applies in situations like these. So the maximum number of goals in our expectations would be two.
