Real Sociedad failed to achieve a positive result in the first game in Rome (0:2). The Basques conceded a goal already in the 13th minute and at the end of the game they had to pick the ball out of their net again. The team had a slight territorial advantage, but only managed to make one shot on goal throughout the match. In La Liga “Real Sociedad” performs well and holds the fourth position. However, at the moment, the club is on a series of four matches without a win (three draws and one loss). In the last round the team coached by Imanol Alguacil played a draw with “Mallorca” away (1:1). Overall, there is a noticeable decline in the Basques’ game. The team has won only twice in the last ten matches in all competitions, while suffering four losses. Therefore, the fact that the club is considered a favorite by bookmakers in the betting line for the upcoming match raises certain questions.
Roma played tactically soundly in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16. After scoring an early goal, the team actively slowed down the pace of the game and capitalized on another opportunity in the end (2:0). Undoubtedly, in the second leg Jose Mourinho’s team will not reveal themselves completely and rely on counterattacks. In Serie A “Roma” is fighting for a spot in the top four. After 26 rounds the “Wolves” are in fifth place, one point behind “Milan.” Only two points separate them from the third-place team, “Lazio”. In the last round, the Romans suffered a sensational home defeat to “Sassuolo” (3:4). It is worth noting that in recent matches, “Roma” has had an unsuccessful away performance, with an open streak of four matches without a win in all tournaments (three losses and one draw).
