“We know the tie is far from over. We know we need to play a perfect game again in order to progress.”
With so much riding on this match, it’s no surprise that Paulo Fonseca rested as many as eight regulars over the weekend against Bologna. And while it was great to see the Giallorossi win over the weekend, it’s abundantly clear that the focus is squarely on the Europa League.

Roma returns to action just three days after a dramatic win in Amsterdam against Ajax. Romanisti will hope that Roger Ibañez’s late goal that completed the comeback will be the spark to turn around a season that s gone dreadfully off course in the last six weeks. The Giallorossi’s now faint top four hopes rely on nothing less than a win tomorrow against Bologna, but at the same time Fonseca must keep an eye on Thursday’s second leg against Ajax at the Olimpico.
