Europa Conference League Preview

Top spot will be important for Roma in the Europa Conference League, as it will mean an immediate passage through to the round of 16. However, if they finish in second, they will need to play a knockout round fixture to reach the same stage. At present, they will be dropping into that playoff, as they are in second place in the group.

It hasn’t been the easiest group campaign for the Italian giants, as they have won just half of the games that they have played. Mourinho also suffered the embarrassment of losing the biggest game of his career in Norway earlier in the campaign, as Roma lost 6-1 to Bodo.

However, they can still reach the top of the group, but they will likely need to win both games that they have to play in the group. Roma were comfortable winners the last time that they came up against the Ukrainian side, as they won 3-0.

Zorya may yet still feel that they can finish the group in second spot. However, to stand any chance of that, they need to take at least a point from this fixture on Thursday. At present, they are a point behind the Italian giants, and they close they group campaign with a home fixture against Bodo.

Zorya have won two of the four games that they have played, but have also been beaten on two occasions. They have conceded six goals so far, which is the second best defensive record after the group leaders. However, they have scored just four times, which is eight fewer than both Roma and Bodo.
