LiontipsLeicester City vs Roma. Prediction and Betting Tips for UEFA Conference League (April 28, 2022).
Command Analysis
Leicester City have had a disastrous performance in the English Premier League this season. Currently, the team is in 10th place in the table, ten points behind the European club competition zone. The Foxes also failed in the FA Cup, and winning the Conference League is their only hope for European football next year.
In the last 16, the British club prevailed over Rennes (3:2 on aggregate), and then beat PSV in the quarterfinals. In the first leg, the Dutch team held Leicester to a goalless draw, but in the second game the Foxes won 2:1.
Roma are currently in the top five in Serie A, but they lack consistency this season. Last weekend, the Wolves suffered a defeat to defending champions Inter Milan (1:3).
Jose Mourinho's men had controversial performance in the Conference League playoffs. In the round of 16, they defeated Vitesse (2:1 on aggregate). In the first leg of their nerve-wrecking semifinal match, Roma lost to Bodo/Glimt (1:2), but they fully redeemed themselves in the second game and crushed the Norwegian side 4:0.

Tip and bets
Jose Mourinho sticks to a more defensive style of football in playoff games, and in general, Roma can't boast a very powerful attacking line. On top of that, Italian clubs often struggle in England, so we do not expect a high-scoring game here. The hosts haven't delivered high performance in their recent matches, either.
Our prediction - total under 2.5 goals
A close game is on the cards. Many of the last matches of the British side ended in draws. The opponents probably will study each other closely, and a draw would be the most logical conclusion to this game.
Second bet - draw
