Roma vs Inter Milan Betting Tips

Jose Mourinho’s Roma welcomes the Italian champions to their home stadium in what looks like a weekend banger. Roma hasn’t been in great form as their matches in Serie A this season has been a series of wins and losses. 

Inter Milan has been almost as if nothing changed in their squad and manager after losing Lukaku to Chelsea and Antonio Conte to Tottenham. They have lost just 1 match and won 10, but drawing four of their Serie A games this season. 

Inter visits Roma’s home ground, but will they be able to triumph over Jose Mourinho’s side? Here we drop our thoughts for this game. 

Roma Form and Team News

Roma has been underwhelming this season as compared to what is expected of them. As we explained above, they are 5th in the Serie A table and have experienced almost the same losses as winnings in Serie A.

However, in their last 5 matches in all competitions, they have won 3 of their games and lost 2. These inconsistent results have made it look like they are not serious about the Serie A title.  

For the team news, they have a myriad of injury problems that have affected their performances this season. Some of the injured players are Afena-Gyan F (Illness), Cristante B (Illness), Pellegrini Lo (Muscle Injury), Spinazzola L (Achilles Tendon Injury), and Villar G (Illness). 

Inter Milan Form and Team News

The Italian Champions are not top of the Serie A, but they are not far from it either. After their financial crises early this season that saw them lose Antonio Conte, Hakimi, and Lukaku, many wrote them off this season, but they are showing that they have what it takes to challenge, and they are doing that.  

They have lost just 1 match in Serie A this season and won a whopping 10 comfortably. Their last 5 matches in all competitions have been a draw and 4 wins, and their last 5 matches in Serie A still have a similar result.  

On the team news, Darmian M (Groin Injury), Eriksen C (Heart Problems), Kolarov A (Injury), Ranocchia A (Muscle Injury), and de Vrij S are all out of this clash due to injury.

Our Tipsters Angle

Inter Milan has been in excellent form and outperforming the expectations of many fans of the Italian Serie A. AS Roma has been underwhelming. However, they seem to turn up in big games and deliver, but they still do not give off enough confidence going into this match. 

Their last 5 matches in all competitions have seen Inter Milan win once and the rest being a draw, which puts this match in an interesting but highly unpredictable position. However, here are thoughts/tips on this match. 

Tip 1: Over 2.5 Goals

Between Inter Milan and AS Roma in their last 5 matches, there have been Over 2.5 goals in 70% of the games. Also, Inter Milan’s matches this season have seen Over 2.5 goals in 70% of them and we think this will be another one of those games. 

AS Roma is not goal shy, but they lack defensive solidity, which is surprising because Mourinho is a defensive genius. 

We expect this match to be another high-scoring affair between these two sides, and  Casumo Sportsbook has Over 2.5 goals available at odds 1.61.

Tip 2: Inter Milan Win or Draw (X2)

Inter Milan is cruising, and we don’t think AS Roma has enough quality to win this match. Even though this match will be played in front of Roma home fans, we think that the most they can get from this match is a draw, and that is why we went for the safer option, Inter Milan, to win or draw. 

Also, there has been draw results littered as the outcome in 4 of their last 5 encounters, and we think this match might also be one of those matches. 

At Casumo sportsbook, Inter Milan to win or draw is placed at 1.25 odds.  

Conclusion

Inter Milan has been in excellent form this season, and they visit Roma in a match that is a great clash and renewed rivalry. Roma should not be underestimated, though, because they have a manager who knows how to win, and with the Roma fans behind them for this fixture, anything can happen.
