Champions League - Roma vs Manchester United Football betting preview

Roma vs Manchester United
  Asian - : -
AS Roma will be without injured captain Francesco Totti when they take on Manchester United in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final first leg at the Stadio Olimpico. The loss of Roma's main creative force and their top scorer in Serie A this term with 14 goals is a big blow to Italy's sole Champions League survivor. The hosts are also without suspended Italy midfielder Simone Perrotta, while Brazilian defender Juan is a doubt because of a foot problem.

In my opinion...if you take Totti off of this squad, you may as well take the heart right out from the chest of Roma. He is the creative beast that makes things happen up front for this squad, and obviously losing Perrotta is no help...I feel as though Roma will be doing all they can to not concede to Man Utd, and will be very happy if they escape this tricky fixture with a 0-0 or 1-1 draw. That being said, I actually like Man Utd to win this game outright...they are playing top quality football, and have just came off of a trouncing against Villa in the Premiership at the weekend.

Overall here, no Totti, no Perrotta = no Roma win. Therefore, I won't quite take the Man Utd victory in this one, but I will go with Man Utd at the spread of PICK. That being, if they draw, we get our money back, if they win, we win. The odds for this are great at 1.77, as I don't see any way Roma takes this game.

In their last 10 games Roma's overall form has been 7-2-1, their home form in Serie A this season is 12-2-1.
They havent dropped any points at home in the league since November, and the last time they didnt win at home was the 1-1 draw with Man U in mid-december.
Totti is aiming to be fit in time for the Old Trafford leg, but as he'd just come back from injury Roma must've been used to playing without him. IMO this is a very tight call indeed, Roma have a strong midfield but i'd say the absence of Perrotta justabout forces me to agree with your tip.

Good to see you again here Posho! I don't think Roma's form is too relavent, because without Totti this isn't the same Roma squad. And again, no Perrotta...I just don't see Roma winning this game...worse come to worse for us, we get our money back on a PICK bet...that is why I chose this one. Good to hear from you mate!

ah! my eye's been off the Italian game for a while, and when i recently read that Totti was back from injury i thought it'd been a longish one - it hadnt, i think he missed just one league game. been looking at the team sheets in last 10 games - and yes, Totti's been a vital part of their recent impressive run. Dont think i'm gonna bet that big on this, as small stakes on correct scores may be more fun - but good luck all the same.

I totally agree with...Roma without "Er capitano" is probably going to lose this!Only question is maybe Manchester United will settle for a Draw waiting for the return home match.......

I don't see Roma winning this one at all. Man Utd will AT LEAST draw...and probably knick it with a victory. I think this is the perfect bet. Worse come to worse, we get our money back on a draw. I love it.

if it adds any food for thought, remember the 1-1 draw back in December was a meaningless fixture with both teams fielding many reserve players.
