FC Kosice vs AS Roma Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | Club Friendlies 2024

Giallorossi look forward to kickstarting their pre-season campaign with a win over the Slovakian-based outfit, FC Kosice.

Žltomodrí have won just one solitary game in their previous five friendly fixtures. FC Kosice finished third from the bottom of the table in the last season of the Slovak Super Liga, just above Zlate Moravce and Michalovce. Under coach Gergely Geri, FC Kosice will be keen to cause an upset by beating the Italian giants, AS Roma, in their next friendly fixture.

On the other hand, the Italian-based outfit, AS Roma, are coming off a not-so-successful season. Despite Italian clubs getting an additional UEFA Champions League berth, AS Roma failed to make it to the top tier of European club football (UCL). They had to settle for a UEFA Europa League berth. Daniele De Rossi will look forward to beginning Roma’s pre-season campaign with a big win over FC Kosice.

Kick-Off:

Monday, 22 July 2024 at 11:00 PM IST; 6:30 PM UK

Location: Kosicka Futbalova Arena, Kosice, Slovakia

Form:

• FC Kosice (in all competitions): L-W-L-D-L
• AS Roma (in all competitions): W-L-W-L-D

Players to Watch:

Zan Medved (FC Kosice)

Slovenian forward Zan Medved netted 9 goals from 28 appearances for the Slovakian-based outfit in the previous season. He was one of the standout performers for Žltomodrí despite a difficult season. The 6-foot-1-inch Slovenian will be a key player for Gergely Geri’s team when they face the Italian giants AS Roma in their next friendly fixture at home.

Paulo Dybala (AS Roma)

Paulo Dybala was left out of Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina squad for the Copa America 2024. One of the most creative, elegant, and talented players in modern-day football, Dybala will be eager to get the ball rolling for Roma in their pre-season campaign. Dybala has made 53 appearances for La Lupa and found the back of the net on 25 occasions. He will be an instrumental player for the Capitolini when they face FC Kosice in their upcoming friendly fixture.
