Slovan BratislavaNo absentees
Roma welcome Slovan Bratislava to the Stadio Olimpico still searching for their first Champions League league-phase win, with the Slovakian side propping up the 36-team table after losing both games and conceding nine goals (8pm UK time).
Anthony Eadson’s Roma vs Slovan Bratislava predictions, best bets and score prediction for Tuesday’s 8pm (UK time) kick-off are below.
Premium Tips
Two picks stand out for a mismatch at the Stadio Olimpico.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Roma to win to nil | 23/20 (Betway) | Slovan Bratislava have scored just one goal across their opening two matches and failed to find the net at home to Stuttgart last time out. The visitors also shipped six away at PSG and carry the worst goal difference in the entire league phase at minus eight. Roma, for all their own defensive wobbles, have far too much quality at home for a side rooted to the bottom, and a shut-out looks a realistic reward on this evidence. |
| Peter Pokorny to be carded | 3/1 (bet365) | Peter Pokorny has featured throughout Slovan’s European run and already collected a booking in the competition. With his team propping up the 36-side league phase and set to spend long spells chasing the game, the defensive midfielder is a prime candidate for the referee’s notebook against Roma’s movement and quick feet. The hosts have scored four times in two outings, so Slovan will be stretched and tempted into fouls. At 3/1 he holds plenty of appeal. |

How Roma go into the game
Roma arrive 25th in the Champions League league phase with just a point from their opening two matches. Four goals scored shows some attacking intent, but five conceded, and a home defeat already, points to defensive work still to do.
Their most recent outing was a 4-3 home defeat to Real Madrid, which followed a 1-1 draw away at Fenerbahce on matchday one. Hosting the bottom side at the Stadio Olimpico (8pm UK time) looks the ideal chance to get off the mark and claim a first win of the campaign.
How Slovan Bratislava go into the game
Slovan Bratislava sit bottom of the 36-team league phase, beaten in both games and already shipping nine goals. One goal scored across the two matches tells its own story of how tough this competition has been for them.
Last time out they were beaten 3-0 at home by Stuttgart, a result that came after a 6-1 defeat away at PSG on the opening night. A return to the road against far stronger opponents is a daunting ask on this form.
Roma vs Slovan Bratislava head-to-head
These two have never met in a competitive fixture, so there is no head-to-head record to call upon. On current form, Roma’s superior quality should tell against first-time opponents on home soil.
Roma vs Slovan Bratislava predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roma win | 2/11 (Betway) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Slovan have lost both their games by an aggregate of 9-1, while the hosts are overwhelming favourites against the side rooted to the foot of the table. |
| Both teams to score – No | 20/21 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐ | The visitors have found the net just once in two outings and drew a complete blank at home to Stuttgart last time out. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 13/5 (Paddy Power) | ⭐⭐ | Slovan’s solitary goal in two matches suggests a one-sided contest that need not turn into a goal glut if Roma manage it sensibly. |
| Correct score Roma 2-0 Slovan Bratislava | 7/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | Roma’s only home game so far ended 4-3, but against far weaker opposition a controlled two-goal margin looks about right. |
Roma vs Slovan Bratislava score prediction
Everything points to a comfortable home win. Slovan Bratislava have leaked nine goals across their two defeats, and even a stuttering Roma should have more than enough in front of their own fans at the Stadio Olimpico. Score prediction: Roma 2-0 Slovan Bratislava.
