Feyenoord vs AS Roma comment: Reclaiming the old debt
With the Feyenoord players, AS Roma is a team full of grace when they lost to the Italian team in the final of the Champions League last season. Returning to this year's season, the draw brought Feyenoord to rematch AS Roma in the quarterfinals of the European Cup.
If looking at the current performance, Feyenoord is confident to repay the debt received before AS Roma. In particular, the first leg match at home will be a very good opportunity for the teachers and coaches of Slot to claim the debt nearly a year ago.
Remember, Feyenoord is on a sublime form when 10 and has only lost 1 time in the last 11 matches. In the European Cup, the Dutch team has just won a resounding 7-1 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk and this will be a stark warning to AS Roma.
As for the away team, AS Roma is not a team that can be trusted when playing away from home. The evidence is that Mourinho's teachers and students only won 1, drew 2 and lost 4 times in the last 7 away matches. Obviously, choosing AS Roma in tonight's away game is not a safe decision.
O/U ratio (2 1/4): 2/3 of the last confrontations between Feyenoord and AS Roma had no more than 2 goals scored per game. Feyenoord's last 3/4 matches in the European Cup also had no more than 2 goals/match. The last 10/13 matches of AS Roma were about 2 1/4.
