Bayer Leverkusen has something that Liverpool lacked this season: team discipline. Even if the whole team is defeated, they do not give up on the game and fight like gladiators to avoid defeat. I feel like I'm in the arena while watching their match. Bayer Leverkusen matches feel amazing. This situation will undoubtedly continue in the Rome match they will play today. If Roma take the lead, they should be very careful because they are facing the strongest undefeated team of 2024.

Even the home game for roma doesn't even help it to be favored in winning the game.

I would call two safe choices to bet

- BTTS
- TOTAL OVER

It's a bit risky to bet on either of these clubs winning the game. Draws are likely to occur in this game consider they may be strong and equal one to each other. I'd rather take a double chance, even though the odds disappointed me, because it's safer than betting on Roma or Leverkusen to win. It's an alternative risk when we are going to the multi bet int he same game for this match.
It's difficult to predict whether either of these teams will dominate the game. I am not even calling Roma a weak team but i saw roma may perform differ in the upcoming game soon.

The fact that Rome has grown from nothing to something. The gameplay has been drastically different from when Mourinho was still there. I have no reason to believe that one of them will own the game.
We may be witnessing an equal match between these clubs.

This UEFA Europa League season is different than the last one because we have Roma, Leverkusen, Atalanta and Marseille for semi finals. Three of four clubs all began this season in Europa League and they did not drop down from Champions League, only Marseille fell down to Europa League from Champions League. The past season is different with only Roma played in Europa League since the beginning and all three other clubs are from Champions League.

Two matches with Leverkusen will be big and fearful for De Rossi and Roma. They can be confident about themselves but it's not easy to get rid of fear on strength of Leverkusen that has had a very long impressive unbeaten streak in this season through all competitions.

Bayer is the only team remaining in the EL that is the champion of its championship. All the rest, at best, are fighting for the Champions League zone. It is clear that in this case they have some kind of advantage, but first I would see how they will play the match against Roma today. I won’t talk about how much better Roma has become with De Rossi, this is already obvious, and I hope this will be enough to beat Bayer today.

Roma have the advantage in the first leg because they will play at home, the first leg of course must be used by De Rossi by winning and giving Leverkusen the first defeat of the season, Roma should be able to score many goals in the game later to be able to get ease in the second leg later, currently Leverkusen is an unbeaten team this season and it should be a motivation for Roma players to become a team that can Beating Leverkusen for the first time this season, playing at home, of course, De Rossi must instruct the Roma squad to minimize the mistakes they might make because if not of course Leverkusen can take advantage of these mistakes to get a victory or at least a draw in the first leg later.

The Roma and Leverkusen match is one of the interesting spectacles after we see the Champions League semi-finals this week, both teams in my opinion have the same chance of winning in the match considering the performance of both teams, but if you look at the mentality possessed by Leverkusen of course they also have a chance to be able to destroy Roma in Olympico later.

With Leverkusen currently progressing strongly in the semi-finals of the Europa League, we expect to see them win against Roma in today's match. A team from the Italian League and a team from the German League will play in the first leg today, and although the two teams are quite strong, I think Leverkusen is one of the best teams of the season. Leverkusen's current excellent performance ensures that they are playing well enough to win the Europa League. However, how well Roma can perform against Leverkusen will depend on the result of the first leg of the semi-final. Leverkusen is in the best form this season, so I think they dominate today's match, but since today's match is going to be played at Roma's home ground, they have more chances to win.

Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen knocked out West Ham, one of the standout teams of the competition, in the previous round. Bayer Leverkusen remained undefeated after being crowned champions and now the season continues undefeated for them. Xabi Alonso's team has a wide attacking line and can get the same output from many different players. They will fight for an advantageous score away to Roma.

Roma, on the other hand, had a good momentum with De Rossi and reached the semifinals of the Europa League. In the quarterfinals they beat Milan in both games. This was a very motivating victory for them. I expect it to be a tough game and Roma have the home advantage. Both teams can score.

Liverpool is different cases, their downturn happened when they face Atalanta, after that we can see Liverpool even lose against weak teams e.g. Everton and Crystal Palace. Leverkusen haven't lose in their last 46 matches, that achievement is no joke, not many teams can beat their record. That's why the odds Roma to win is really low.

Italian club was strong, but in this generation, only Inter is strong, the rest are mediocre including Roma. So I believe Roma will not able to pull an upset.

The semifinal matches will certainly be quite fierce because the teams that have reached the semifinals are teams that have good quality.
I see that overall the two Europa League semi-final matches are quite balanced even though Roma and Leverkusen are talked about a lot because they are slightly more favorites compared to Atalanta and Marseille, but in terms of the percentage of these four teams being able to advance to the final, I think it is not much different.

Marseille and Atalanta actually have almost the same quality, but Atalanta is now quite confident after they were able to beat the favorites to win the Europa League this season, namely Liverpool.
The first leg match will be played at Marseille's home ground and they are quite strong when playing at home, so it is possible that Marseille can make good use of this first leg.

And for Roma vs Leverkusen of course it will be quite fierce, Leverkusen has been quite strong and consistent since the start of the season and it has been a tough job for Roma to be able to break Leverkusen's dominance this season, the first leg which will be played at Roma's home ground will of course make De Rossi's team This will have high motivation to achieve maximum results.

Besides Roma vs Leverkusen i think Marseille vs Atalanta also very interesting because before reach to semifinal match both teams is underrated teams but surprisingly they can eliminate their opponents and fight to get one ticket of final match and after Atalanta eliminate Liverpool people has starting to considers them as the favourite but Marseille also cannot be underestimate because in the quarterfinal match they lost from Benfica but surprisingly Marseille can able to bounce back in the second leg and dramatically eliminate Benfica through an penalty shootout

Marseille and Atalanta is in the good shape because from 5 matches in all competitions they only lost once but if i am not mistaken this is their first met in this competition so there was no head to head statistics from them and since group stages Marseille has been through an 6 home matches and they still unbeated with gets 5 wins and 1 draw so these statistics makes Marseille so confident that they can beat Atalanta today because although Marseille performance at Ligue 1 is not so impressive but at Europa League Marseille performance is still consistent and today probably Marseille will be able to resumes their records and win from Atalanta and the odds for Marseille is quite high to bets @2.55

A draw is very possible because this first leg match was played at Roma's home ground and Leverkusen's mentality is quite good and this has been proven because they have been unbeaten since the start of the season in all competitions.
The team that is already in the semifinals is the best team so of course the match will be very fierce and regarding Leverkusen being slightly favored, it is also natural in my opinion from what they have shown since the start of the season that makes them worthy of being favored.
I will bet on a draw in this match with Odds @ 3.70. I think it is quite worth it for all the possible profits and also the risks.

No excuses right now, thisbis where somebody else comes up for his spot, I don't want it to seem like because Romelu Lukaku was absent, they lost the game against Bayern Leverkusen.

It should be  Tammy Abraham off course, he has played for Chelsea in such a big game in the Champions League Competition, he has just recently returned from Injury but he should also get his chance.
He was buzzing for As Roma before he got Injured. I'm rooting for him to earn it up today.

This is not a game for Xabi Alonso to fear, not even the brain games done by Daniel De Rossi would affect Xabi Alonso.  This is a top midfielder' before his coaching days he should know better. I'm not expecting too much from Xabi Alonso and Bayern Leverkusen in thisngame tonight.
This is a game I'm predicting for them to draw, then they will crush As Roma next mid-week at home.

The mentality of Leverkusen players is very strong, they have proven it in several matches by scoring goals in the final minutes to save their team from defeat. Leverkusen have scored 16 goals in injury time this season in all competitions, the last goal in injury time came in the 90+6 minute of the 2-2 draw against Stuttgart. The tireless spirit possessed by Leverkusen players will have a positive impact on the results achieved, they are still able to create games even though they are behind their opponents.

Xabi Alonso advantage in building a team is because he doesn't rely on one or two players, they work together to achieve maximum results. Leverkusen players already understand each other, they also do not consider themselves to be great players on the team who must always be treated special like other star players.

Leverkusen amazing performance in 46 matches without losing was a good asset when facing Roma at the Stadio Olimpico. Appearing in the final was certainly Leverkusen's mission as well as avenging the painful 1-0 aggregate defeat to Roma last season. The smell of revenge will occur in this game and they want to maintain their unbeaten record while maintaining their chances of winning their second trophy this season.

This game actually deserves to be the final match but unfortunately, they had to meet earlier in the semifinal. Roma might be a worthy opponent for Bayer Leverkusen, even though their performance has been less consistent recently, but not every team can reach the semifinals, so that proves that Roma is also a serious challenger in the European League. Bayer Leverkusen will clearly be the favorites because they are in their best shape and they are mentally in good condition as they have been confirmed to be Bundesliga champions. My guess is that in the first leg, the match will end in a draw.

What makes the match Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich surprising? I think a draw result is still reasonable, both Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are in the same level. I think the result of the match Dortmund vs PSG is more surprising. PSG is the favorite team to qualify for the final round, but Dortmund defeated them in Leg 1. Even if PSG has many chances to score goals, Dortmund can defend their defense very well. Sure, this also can happen in the match Roma vs Leverkusen. If the defenders of AS Roma can play solidly, Leverkusen may get difficulty to score goals. Then, AS Roma may take the advantage of the situation if Leverkusen players feel frustrated. However, I still believe that Leverkusen players can keep their good mentality until the end of the match. If we learned the last few matches of Leverkusen, they often scored goals in injury time. It means they never give up until the end of the match. It indicates Leverkusen players have a winning mentality.

I guess Leverkusen can win the match with a narrow score, or get a draw result in Leg 1. Leverkusen wants to keep the unbeaten status, they also dreams to win Europa league title this season. Their achievement will be perfect if they also win the title from Europa league.

Leverkusen is now at a stage where they are more focused than ever on not being beaten. Even if they are defeated in the match, they continue to attack in extra time and somehow manage to win or draw. Why shouldn't something similar like this happen in the semi-finals of the European league? I think they will win against Rome today and not be defeated out of nothing.

when it comes to Bayern Leverkusen, it's never about the individual players being too exceptional but it's more of thier fighting mentality that makes them fight till the end of the whistle. You can't even compare such kind of mentality to what's common with Liverpool even though they have great players like moh Salah and an incredible defender like van dijk. There is certainly going to coke a time when they will probably loose in a match but even when it happens, it doesn't change the fact that they have built a great reputation and name that can't be denied.

sorry about this but everyone doesn't underestimate teams from series A and also bookmakers don't underestimate Roma but what you have to know here is that we as bettors will look for the most comfortable betting options and we as bettors will also compare the performance of the two teams based on the quality of their appearance and you know how different the two teams are between Roma and Leverkusen, they have different quality of appearance, even though Roma also has quality players, but in terms of consistency, Leverkusen is far superior.
and the reason the bookmaker favors Leverkusen is not to underestimate it, but the bookmaker has a different assessment from what you think and it is impossible for the bookmaker to favor Roma, which is clearly not as strong as Leverkusen in terms of consistency.

and if you often hear people say Leverkusen is the best and will win but believe me most of them are Leverkusen fans not just bettors.
IMO, taking the betting option on BTTS might make sense, but if you place a bet on the win of one of the teams, for me the risk is too big, even though sometimes there are surprises, I will not bet on the win of one of the teams.

It is very possible that De Rossi will do this when facing Leverkusen with Tammy Abraham or Azmoun as the attacker. It is even possible that the two will be played as starters if De Rossi still uses the 4-3-3 formation.
Lukaku was forced to leave the field when Roma beat Udinese in the 72nd minute so there was a chance that Lukaku would play in the second half. If Roma is in a favorable situation, then De Rossi will rest him without playing.

Based on the intelligence of these two coaches, can De Rossi beat Xabi Alonso for the first time Leverkusen has experienced this this season.

People always underestimated the Italian club. That is similar to when Liverpool faced Atalanta in the quarter-finals. I mean, almost everyone was betting on Liverpool, but they're now getting terrible results. I believe Roma will perform better in the upcoming game.
Despite the fact that the majority of football fans predicted Leverkusen to win, I believe the first leg will be BTTS or roma win the game soon.



Look at the odds above; bookmakers gave Leverkusen ridiculously low odds when compared to Roma. Meanwhile, Leverkusen has an away game coming up. I don't understand why bookmakers didn't see Roma as a strong club.
I meant Roma has a lot of good players in the club. It is also capable of defeating one of the best clubs in Serie A.

I believe the bookies were underestimating Roma at this time. The odds should be very close to Leverkusen, but I like this because I might bet on Roma soon.
We'll see what happens in the first leg of the Europa League. Leverkusen may suffer its first loss.
