The home side are one of the two teams yet to taste defeat in the group, alongside the lowly Wolfsberger AC, both teams garnering four points from their first two games.
Manager Paulo Fonseca will be looking to make the most of their home advantage, as he tries to steer his team to maximum points against Borussia Monchengladbach. Expect the visitors to give Roma a run for their money but the home side should have enough about themselves to claim a win.

AS Roma v Monchengladbach Team News

The hosts are currently setting the pace at the top of the Group J standings, albeit only on goal difference. European minnows Wolfsberger AC, against all odds, are hot on the tails of the leaders and seem to be leaving no stone unturned in their bid for qualification from the group stages.

Roma saw off Istanbul Basaksehir in style, in the group’s curtain-raiser, hitting four unanswered goals past the helpless opposition goalkeeper.
Despite this flattering win, they could not keep up with the momentum after being forced to share the spoils against Wolfsberger AC in a drab 1-1 draw in the following match.

The Yellow and Reds have generally been in outstanding form so far this season, assuming just a single defeat so far across all competitions. As things stand, the Italian giants are yet to taste defeat in each of their last four games, an amazing feat worth emulating. The last of those games ended in a stalemate against Sampdoria in the domestic league.

Borussia Monchengladbach, on the other hand, have not been having the best of campaigns so far in the UEFA Europa League, sitting rock bottom on the Group J standings. They will be heading to the Stadio Olimpico on the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Borussia Dortmund in the German Bundesliga.

The visitors are still in the market for their first win, having garnered just a single point from their previous two clashes.

To be honest, manager Marco Rose can have no complaints about his team’s faltering performances so far in the competition. A 4-0 hammering at the hands of the lowly Wolfsberger AC highlighted the numerous problems that the manager needs fixed as soon as possible. They followed that woeful loss with a one-all draw against Istanbul Basaksehir.

Die Fohlen are not particularly on a good run of form at the moment, picking up just a single win in their previous three outings across all competitions.

It is worth noting that the hosts have proven to be one of the most formidable teams in the Italian Serie A this season, tussling with the likes of Juventus and Napoli for top spot. Also, they have the home advantage at hand.

In addition to these, Roma have found goals very easy to come by on this ground, firing on all cylinders to find the back of the net a total of 11 times this season. In fact, they have averaged a goal or more each, in four of their previous five outings.

Injured or Suspended Players:

AS Roma: Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Davide Zappacosta, Cengiz Ünder, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Bryan Cristante, Nikola Kalinic, Amadou Diawara.

Monchengladbach: Torben Muesel, Tobias Strobl, Keanan Bennetts, Fabian Johnson, Ibrahima Traoré, Matthias Ginter.
