AS Roma vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

I Giallorossi to battle Frankfurt in Europa League clash.

AS Roma are set to host Frankfurt in their next UEFA Europa League 2024-25 outing on January 31. The hosts Roma will be in desperate need of a win as they have only been able to clinch two victories in seven games in this tournament. A loss can knock them out of the Europa League. On the other hand, Frankfurt are sitting comfortably in the second spot in the competition standings.

The Serie A side AS Roma will be confident. One of the reasons being their home crowd and the other is they are coming with a win in their last league fixture. Although Roma lost their last game in the European competition, they will be fighting back hard to qualify for the next stage of the tournament. A win will keep them alive in the competition but a defeat can knock them out.

Eintracht Frankfurt are in good form this season when the Europa League is considered. They are also doing decently well in the Bundesliga. A win in their next European competition fixture will take them straight to the top of the table. They might not be able to do so considering the goal difference but will still have more chances of winning over AS Roma.

Friday, January 31, 1:30 AM IST
