Salernitana vs Roma Prediction & Match Preview

• Salernitana lost seven, drew one, and won one of the previous nine matches across competitions.
• Salernitana boast the worst defensive record in the league with 42 goals conceded in 21 matches so far.
• Romelu Lukaku took his Serie A tally to nine goals in the last weekend’s win over Verona.

Roma will be searching for their just third road win of the season on Monday evening when they visit Stadio Arechi for the Matchday No 22 clash against the rock-bottomed Salernitana. La Lupa got off to a new start as Danielle De Rossi made his debut on the bench as Jose Mourinho’s successor in the last weekend’s 2-1 win over Verona.

Roma got off to a phenomenal start to the mentioned game as Romelu Lukaku and Lorenzo Pellegrini bagged goals inside the opening 25 minutes of the affair. Nevertheless, De Rossi’s men have completely stopped playing football at that point. The fact that Roma finished the game on two shots on target in the home clash against an out-of-form Verona says enough. They were eventually lucky to get the win as Verona’s Milan Djuric missed a penalty in the second half.

Luckily for De Rossi and his troops, Roma are now set to face the worst team in the first half of the Serie A campaign. Salernitana firmly hold the very foot of the league table with six points between them and the safe zone after 21 rounds of the competitions. The latest of their failures came eight days ago when Salernitana lost the home fixture to Genoa after a second-half comeback (1-2).

Recent Meetings

• Salernitana held Roma to a 2-2 stalemate in the return match played in August last year in Rome.
• Roma do have four wins, two draws, and one loss in the previous seven encounters with Salernitana.
• Three or more goals were scored in all but one of the last seven H2H meetings between these two outfits.

Salernitana vs Roma Prediction

Salernitana sit at the rock bottom of the Serie A table with by far the worst defensive record in the league. They allowed 42 goals in 21 outings so far in the season. They revealed defensive holes once again in the last weekend’s home loss to Genoa. It was the fourth win on the spin for Filippo Inzaghi’s men.

Roma did not shine at all in the home win over Verona on Danielle De Rossi’s managerial debut. However,, they do have enough quality in their ranks to get the much-needed win against the weakest team in the division. You can back Roma to win at the 1.66 odds.

Romelu Lukaku took his league tally to nine goals by opening the score in the aforementioned win over Verona last weekend. The Belgian forward should have even more space to deliver in the final third here against the weakest defense in the competition. We will back Lukaku to score anytime at the odds of 2.30.
