Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the UEFA Champions League match.
Bayer
Bayer have scored 25 goals in their last 10 games in all tournaments. Even reserve players play very well. Hlozek made a hat-trick of assists in the game against Eintracht (5:1). Bayer won their 48th consecutive game. The attacking line is highly motivated as Bayer are about to set a new record.
Roma
The second quarter-final leg against Milan (1:2) seemed to reveal the weak sides of the Roma defending line. They have conceded 10 goals in the last 6 Serie A and Europa League games. It’s a lot for a potential finalist of a European cup. Juventus had 1.16 xG on Sunday in the game versus Roma in the Italian capital.
Bayer – Roma prediction
Roma will have to provide free space to Bayer as the Italian side needs to score to reach the final. This is an advantage for Bayer and they will use it by scoring at least 2 goals.
