Football Park’s Best Bet: AS Roma to Win @ 2.10 (Kwiff) - Our team of in-house betting tipsters have predicted a Roma win in this fixture. Their superior form, away record, and head-to-head record justify confidence in this selection.
Terem Moffi (OGC Nice): The forward has been a consistent performer for the French club and has a strong goal-scoring record. In his first five appearances this season, he has scored two goals, making him a key player for Nice's attack. His pace and ability to get in behind defences will be a major threat to the Roma backline.
Evan Ferguson (Roma): The young Irish striker, on loan from Brighton, has already made an impact since joining Roma. In his first three appearances, he has provided a crucial assist, showcasing his potential to be a key player for Roma's attack. His pace and finishing ability will be a major threat to the Nice defence, and he will be looking to get on the scoresheet in the Europa League. A competition he is no stranger to.
Artem Dovbyk (Roma): The Ukrainian international striker, despite reports of his potential departure, remains with Roma and is a key part of the squad. His physicality and powerful shot will pose a serious threat to the Nice defense, and his goal-scoring record suggests he is a reliable option for Roma in front of goal, whether he or Ferguson starts.
