Roma v Helsinki: official lineups, prediction for goalscorers, cautions and shoot-outs in the Giallorossi’s Europa League clash
Following the home loss to Ludogorets, José Mourinho’s Roma can no longer afford any slip-ups in their Europa League group: led by Paulo Dybala’s brilliant performance against Empoli, the Giallorossi take on Helsinki at home, with a few changes to their line-up. Here are the choices of the two coaches:
- ROMA (3-4-2-1): Rui Patricio, Mancini, Ibanez, Vina, Karsdorp, Cristante, Matic, Spinazzola, Zaniolo, Pellegrini, Belotti.
- HELSINKI (3-4-3): Hazard, Hoskonen, Tenho, Raitala, Browne, Vaananen, Lingman, Hetemaj, Hostikka, Abubakari, Soiri.
Roma-Helsinki, goalscorer prediction
Belotti could find the way to goal. The ‘Gallo’ wants to repay the trust placed in him by Mou, who has entrusted him once again with the reins of attack after his performance against Ludogorets. Also watch out for the desire to relaunch captain Pellegrini, who against Empoli missed a penalty kick that would have helped close the file long before the referee’s triple whistle. For the more reckless, we could recommend a defender as a possible goalscorer: the Mancini option intrigues not a little.
Roma-Helsinki’s likely cautions and marksmen
Spinazzola could feature in at least one finish in the opponent’s goal: the Italian outfielder’s physical condition is on the rise, and his blitzes on the flank are becoming more numerous. A possible caution for Tenho, who should be in great difficulty against the technique and physicality of the Giallorossi’s offensive department.
