Roma have struggled away from home in European games

In the last 10 years, Roma have reached the UEFA Champions League knock-out stages on 4 occasions and only once have they managed to reach the quarter-finals. Their record in knock-out games is quite dismal.

Ad

In their last 10 UEFA Champions League knock-out games, Roma have lost on 9 occasions, conceding 16 goals. Their away record looks dreadful as well, having lost their five previous away games in the UEFA Champions League, scoring only once and conceding nine times in the process.

They were thrashed 6-1 (aggregate score) by Barcelona when these two sides last met in the Champions League. Roma need a miracle to cause an upset and that does not look forthcoming. Expect the Catalan giants to destroy AS Roma at the Camp Nou.
