 AS Roma :Form & Record Check
 
Before the semi-final second legs, the bookmakers trade AS Roma as slight favorites for the first title in the Conference League. With a 1:1 in the first leg in Leicester, the Romans, strong at home, created a good starting position for the finals. At home they had already come back from a 2-1 deficit from the first leg against FK Bodø/Glimt in the previous round. They defeated the Norwegians 4-0 in the Italian capital. Roma are undefeated at home in the Europa Conference League. The Wolves have not lost in ten home games across all competitions.

In the league, qualification for international business is still at risk after only two points from the last three games. City rivals Lazio Roma were able to draw level with the win last weekend and are currently only behind Roma because of the worse goal difference. In the remaining three games against Florence, Venice and Turin, it would be better for José Mourinho's team to get back on the road to success.

By reaching the final, the Romans would keep their chance of winning the second international title in their club's history. In the 1960/61 season they won the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup final against Birmingham City. After that, Roma would reach two more European finals. In 1984, however, they lost the final of the European Cup against Liverpool 3-5 on penalties. In 1991 she was defeated in two games in the all-Italian UEFA Cup final by Inter Milan.

After all, Jose Mourinho's team has been unbeaten in their own stadium for ten games. These are good conditions to take a close look at the odds between AS Roma and Leicester for the Italians to progress. Last weekend, however, Roma only struggled to a goalless draw against Bologna at the Olympic Stadium. As you know Jose Mourinho, he was angry at his own team, at the opponent and at the referee.

However, he also has himself to blame for the loss of points, because due to a large rotation, there was no flow of play with the Romans. A completely different team will be back on the pitch on Thursday. Overall, the staff looks pretty decent. However, it could be a problem that Henrikh Mkhitaryan, the playmaker, will be absent with a hamstring injury.

Unbeaten at home in the Conference League (3 wins & 2 draws)
10 home games in a row not lost
hit in every conference league game

Roma played in the Europa Conference League from the start due to a disappointing 7th place finish last season in Serie A. There you were also one of the absolute top favorites for the title. Despite two embarrassing performances against the Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt in the group phase, they secured first place in group C. They then prevailed against Vitesse and again Bodo/Glimt in the knockout phase. With Leicester City you now face what is certainly the strongest opponent so far.

Leicester: Form & Record Check
 
Unlike AS Roma, Leicester City is still waiting for its first international title. Unlike the Romans, the Foxes have never been in a European final. This season, Leicester will only play internationally for the sixth time. The Foxes celebrated their greatest international success when they made it into the quarter-finals of the premier class in their first and only appearance in the Champions League (the season after the sensational Premier League victory in 2015). There, however, they were eliminated by Atlético Madrid after a 0-1 draw in the first leg and a 1-1 draw in the second leg.

If they want to make it to the final this season, the English have to win in Rome. However, they have not won any of their last five competitive games. The most recent game in the Premier League was lost 3-1 at Tottenham Hotspur with relatively little chance. Nevertheless, hope should be given that the last game they won was an away game in the Europa Conference League. Leicester City prevailed 2-1 after a 0-0 first leg defeat at PSV Eindhoven. The Foxes turned the 1-0 deficit from the first half with two late goals from James Maddison (77th) and Ricardo Pereira (88th) and deservedly made it into the semi-finals overall.

The Foxes visited Tottenham Hotspur last weekend and were completely overwhelmed. After an hour at the latest, the game was decided with the 2:0 of ​​the home side. However, Spurs added a third goal. Only in added time did Kelechi Iheanacho manage to make some cosmetic gains with the 1:3. The priorities are now completely on the Europa League.

Evidence of this is that Jamie Vardy, who made his comeback in the starting XI in the first leg, only sat on the bench in London. On Thursday, however, the attacker will almost certainly play from the start. It is conceivable that Brendan Rodgers will add a second forward in Kelechi Iheanacho to the starting lineup. The only absentee is probably Wilfred Ndidi, who is unable to play due to a knee injury.

The English have been able to mingle with the Big Six in the Premier League more and more in recent years. The quality of the squad continued to improve and is now worth more than €500 million. This makes them the strongest remaining team in the Conference League on paper. However, being eliminated from the Europa League group was already a major disappointment. Now only the title counts for the Foxes, because the league will no longer qualify you for international business.

The paths of AS Roma and Leicester City have crossed only once so far. This is mainly due to the fact that the English are still a newcomer on the international stage and have only been involved in European competition for a few seasons. Therefore, we will not be able to draw much information from the direct comparison.
 
The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw at King Power Stadium last week. At first everything went in the direction of the Italians. Captain Lorenzo Pellegrini gave his team a 1-0 lead after just 15 minutes. After the change, however, the English were lucky enough to equalize, which resulted from an own goal by Gianluca Mancini.

Like Leicester City, AS Roma have the opportunity to win the first important European title in the club's history this year. The first leg of these two teams ended 1-1 in Leicester, which the Italians could certainly live with better. Now they have the chance to make the finals perfect in front of their own audience. In the domestic league, however, things are not going according to plan for either team. Leicester in particular probably have the best chance of winning the Europa League next time by winning the Conference League. The Roma, on the other hand, have the difficulties of having to concentrate on 2 competitions. The semi-finals start on Thursday at 9:00 p.m.

Tip and prognosis
 
Roma have the great advantage of being able to play in front of their own fans. This season, the team was able to use this often, as their home record shows quite clearly. We therefore believe that the Roma make the finals perfect. The good offensive was an important factor in the previous Conference League season. In contrast to the first leg, we believe in more than 2.5 goals this time.
