LiontipsRoma vs Manchester United. Predictions and Betting Tips for Europa League
Command Analysis
Roma had an objective to claim a Champions League spot at the conclusion of the season, but Paulo Fonseca failed to achieve that result. For a long time Wolves were a contender for a Top-4 finish, but Atalanta, Juventus and Napoli turned out to be too tough to compete against.
Romans are currently 7th in the Serie A standings, 14 points behind fourth-placed Milan - this handicap would be impossible to overcome. Moreover, Roma can stay without the European competitions completely - eighth-placed Sassuolo is only two points behind Roma. After a loss to Sampdoria (0:2) in the last game Romans are on a four-game winless streak.
Roma had a chance to get to the Champions League by winning the Europa League, but after a crushing defeat in the first leg (2:6), it would be impossible for them to come back in the game.
On Wednesday, club's board made an announcement about Jose Mourinho's appointment on the head coach position. Portuguese manager will start to work after the end of current season.
Manchester United is having a great season - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team couldn't fight for the title, but they managed to secure a Champions League spot without any problems. Red Devils are currently on the second spot in the English Premier League, four points ahead of third-placed Leicester City with a game in hand.
They are 13 points behind the first-placed Manchester City, which will be impossible to overcome. Manchester United had to play against Liverpool in the 34th round of the league on Sunday, but the game was postponed because of the fans' riot, new date for the match wasn't handed yet.
Manchester United has almost guaranteed a ticket to the final for themselves - Red Devils won the first leg by a 6:2 score, now they have to defend that handicap at Rome.

Tip and bets
Roma lost their form and look hopeless right now - even Sampdoria without any motivation managed to secure an easy win over Wolves. Manchester United showed class in the first leg and we believe that in second one Wolves won't be able to resist as well.
We believe that hosts have no chance. Prediction - Manchester United to win.
Roma will probably go ahead - it's unlikely that Wolves are hoping for a comeback, but they will try to secure a win at least by a minimum margin. Roma's defense is a mess, so Manchester United will have a space for attacks - Red Devils were very efficient on offense in the first leg, so they should score even more easily in this game.
Both opponents won't sit on defense, so we can see many goals here.
Our second bet will be on total over three goals.
