Leicester and Roma played out an entertaining 1-1 draw at King Power Stadium and another close encounter is on the cards in their rematch.
However, if the Foxes can cope with a hostile atmosphere at Olimpico, we reckon they have an edge in energy which can help to see them through.
City can be backed at 2.35 to qualify for the Europa Conference League final and that is our initial Roma vs Leicester prediction.
Roma seized an early advantage in England when some neat build-up play put in Lorenzo Pellegrini and he fired between Kasper Schmeichel’s legs.
Tammy Abraham looked a handful up front at times and Schmeichel had to be alert to keep out a late effort from Sergio Oliveira.
Jose Mourinho is now counting on the Giallorossi’s fervent supporters to make a difference in the Italian capital.
“The second leg is a final date in Rome, that’s the way we look at it,” he said. “We don’t think about Albania (the final venue), we think about this final we have to play.
“I believe every Romanista will accept that with great motivation. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy, for a team like Leicester it doesn’t make much difference for them to play at home or away.
“They have the maturity, class, experience and what the Premier League represents. For us, it makes a difference to play at home with our 70,000.”
However, Roma have come up short in several big Serie A matches at this venue, losing to both Milan clubs and Juventus.
At the Roma vs Leicester odds on offer, we reckon the Foxes are good value at 3.4 to silence the home crowd and win the second leg.
Leicester ended up having 68 per cent of the possession at King Power Stadium after dominating for long periods of the second half.
They were rewarded for their efforts when a Harvey Barnes cross went in via Ademola Lookman and Gianluca Mancini.
Kelechi Iheanacho had a couple of chances to get on the scoresheet, while Chris Smalling did well to block a Lookman shot.
Brendan Rodgers commented: “I was so pleased with the performance. We gave away a sloppy goal, but I was so pleased with the team; the technical quality and how we imposed our style.
“It was a shame we couldn’t score more goals but it was a great response to going behind. We know we can travel and get the job done and we are really looking forward to that.
“We have no fear, we can go to Rome and play to that level. We have a fantastic chance to get to the final.”
City won 2-1 at PSV after drawing the first leg at home in the quarter-finals and 11.5 for the same scoreline here is added to our Roma vs Leicester betting tips.
