It’s been a difficult start to the season for Roma who have a modest return of fourteen points from nine games played. Scoring goals hasn’t actually been a problem for Jose Mourinho’s team considering that they have amassed twenty, although there have been twelve conceded and their form on the road has been especially suspect.
However, the Giallorossi come into the game off the back of three straight Serie A wins, with home wins over Frosinone and Monza sandwiching a 4-1 triumph away to Cagliari. It appears as though Roma have found their form and perhaps they can be backed on the Asian Handicap market against Inter.
Romelu Lukaku has been reunited with Mourinho after coming to the club on loan from Chelsea and the Belgian has eleven goals on the board this term. The striker goes up against the club with whom he earned a Scudetto, while he was on target twice in the recent thrashing of Cagliari on the road.
However, it’s his former strike partner Lautaro Martinez who tops the scoring charts after notching eleven goals in the space of nine games. This includes a four-goal haul away to Salernitana, with the bookies anticipating that Inter Milan will be a popular accumulator selection. It might be that they are a little too short in the betting.
