Brighton vs Roma Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips
Brighton vs Roma Preview
- Tournament – Europa League
- Date – Thursday, March 15
- Kick-off Time – 08:00 pm GMT
- Venue – AMEX Stadium
The two European giants will battle out each other in the UEFA Europa League round-of-16 second-leg tie on Thursday, March 15. In the first leg, we saw Roma demolishing Roberto de Zerbi’s side with a 4-0 victory and almost securing their spot in the quarter-finals.
Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi is sweating over the fitness of starters Mitoma and Adam Lallana who could be unavailable for the return fixture. The Seagulls have condemned to three successive defeats for the first time this season before their win over Nottingham Forest over the weekend. With their current form, it’s highly unlikely the English side can pull off a comeback in the return fixture at home.
Roma, on the other hand, have put one foot in the quarter-finals and have secured five out of six wins across all competitions. The Italian giants will enter this game on the back of a good run of form.

Brighton vs Roma Prediction
The second leg of the Europa League R16 will be an interesting one as new-entrant Brighton plays a ruthless Roma side. Since Brighton will be playing on the home turf in the return fixture between the sides, the home team might secure a win but might struggle to get past the 4-0 deficit in the first leg.
Prediction: Brighton 1-0 Roma
