Roma to win

Both teams to score – no

The Roma vs Salzburg odds come across a lot of value in backing goals at both ends of the pitch, but Roma are likely to be defensive and cautious. The varying changes on the pitch is likely to add to the lack of rhythm in the game. This match might witness one of the teams failing to score.
