14th August 2022 – 20:45, Stadio Arechi, Salerno
Salernitana will take on Roma in the opening round of Serie A on Sunday evening. The home side hopes to repeat the last season’s success to remain in the Italian top flight, while the visitors eye the top-four finish.
Salernitana Preview & Team News
Salernitana and Roma go head to head at Stadio Arechi in the opening match of the season. Thanks to brilliant displays in the last season finale, Salernitana managed to secure the elite division survival, and they are on the same quest in the new domestic campaign. And Granata, though, suffered a shocking 2-0 loss to Parma in their Coppa Italia opener, and, as a result, the bookies see them as underdogs in Sunday’s clash. Defender Matteo Lovato should be the only absentee on the home team. The hosts invested in their squad during the summer transfer window, and we’ll see if those guys can keep Salernitana in the safe zone.
Roma Preview & Team News
The Giallorossi, on the other hand, did well to sign Nemanja Matic, Georginio Wijnaldum, Zeki Celik and Paulo Dybala in the summer transfer window. Roma missed out on the Champions League qualification last season, and they don’t want to repeat the same mistake again. The away side had a pretty good pre-season, and they head to the season-opener full of confidence. Paulo Dybala is the team’s main star, fans expect a lot from this guy, and many of them welcome the Argentine international. Roma boss Jose Mourinho has a large number of players on the sidelines. Nikola Zalevski (Ankle Sprain) and Ebrima Darboe (Cruciate Ligament Surgery) will not play here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
Roma eyes a successful start of the season, although trips to Salerno can be tricky. Jose Mourinho’s side looks confident, and we think they might win by more than a goal. That’s why we are going to dip into the Asian Handicap market.
Goals Market Prediction
Their last season’s clashes went over a 2.5 margin and knowing the mentality of these two teams, we don’t expect a different outcome. Therefore, we are going to back them to score at least three goals in total.
