Lille team overview
Lille approach this fixture in respectable form as well, having won four of their last six matches across domestic and European competitions. They began their Europa League campaign with a narrow 2-1 win over Brann, showcasing defensive solidity by limiting their opponents to very few clear chances and converting their own chances with confidence (xG of 1.57). In Ligue 1, Lille have been competitive, sitting comfortably in the upper half of the table with 10 points from six games, although they have lost back-to-back games in recent weeks. A 1-0 defeat to Lyon at the weekend was only the second time Lille failed to score this season.
The visitors have as many as six players currently sidelined with injuries: Alexsandro Ribeiro, Thomas Meunier, Ugo Raghouber, Benjamin Andre and Marc-Aurele Caillard and Ousmane Toure are all unavailable.

Prediction
This clash at the Stadio Olimpico has all the ingredients of a tightly contested Europa League encounter. Roma will benefit from home advantage, where their record has been impressive, and their defensive form suggests they can limit opponents to few chances as well. However, Lille’s ability to frustrate opponents and exploit space on the counter makes them a dangerous side to underestimate. Roma are in better form heading into this game, while Lille have lost back-to-back fixtures in Ligue 1, but a solid win over Brann in matchday one will give them confidence nevertheless. A low-scoring draw appears the most likely outcome, therefore we predict Lille to avoid defeat (double chance x2).
Three reasons we expect Double chance x2
- Roma have been a low-scoring side so far this season, averaging just 1.0 goal per game, with all of their matches turning into tight contests.
- Lille opened their Europa League campaign with a 2-1 victory over Brann.
- Roma also secured a 2-1 win against Nice on matchday one, although they recorded an expected goals (xG) tally of only 0.80.
