Our prediction - Asian handicap (-2) on Roma
Roma should be able to get a clean victory here. Aside from a draw against Juventus and a defeat to Udinese, visitors didn't concede in the current season. Ludogorets, despite their ongoing unbeaten run, conceded many goals. We think that all goals will be scored by the Italian side today.
Our second bet is on at least one team to not score
