AS Roma host Feyenoord at the Stadio Olimpico for the return leg of the Europa league Quarterfinals on Thursday night. The Dutch side lead by 1-0 from the first leg encounter at De Kuip. AS Roma's Lorenzo Pellegrini missed a first-half penalty, before Mats Wieffer scored the only goal of the match to hand the lead to Feyenoord. It was the Dutch team's first win over AS Roma. Both teams are coming off of a win from their last weekend game, with both teams winning by 3-0 scoreline. Feyenoord will need to protect their narrow lead, but I expect AS Roma to come away with a win tonight for the following reasons:

Firstly. AS Roma have impressive home form in the Europa league and their local league as well. They have won five of their last six home games in all competitions without conceding. Throughout his managerial career, Jose Mourinho has made it a habit of feeding off of the massive home supporters to drive up the performance of his players to maintain an excellent home records. The home advantage is a massive edge for AS Roma.

Secondly. The rejuvenated defence of AS Roma coupled with the re-established balance in attack have made AS Roma a dangerous team to play against right now. They have now won their last three Serie A games without conceding a goal while scoring a total of seven goals. And also keep in mind that they have not conceded a goal at home in seven of their last eight home games, while winning the games. This re-emphasizes what a tough team they are at home.

Feyenoord do not particularly have a good record while playing in Italy. AS Roma have turned the result around from a one-goal-margin losing position from first leg in their last three ties to progress. Having mastered the art of winning without conceding especially at home, I expect a win from AS Roma within the standard 90 minutes game.

周四晚上，罗马主场迎战费耶诺德，进行欧联杯四分之一决赛的第二回合比赛。荷兰队在首回合对阵德库伊普的比赛中以1-0领先。罗马的佩莱格里尼上半场罚丢了一个点球，随后维弗打进了本场比赛唯一一个进球，将领先优势拱手让给费耶诺德。这是荷兰队首次战胜罗马队。两队都刚刚从上周末的比赛中取胜，两队都以3:0的比分获胜。费耶诺德需要保持他们微弱的领先优势，但我希望罗马今晚能取得一场胜利，原因如下:

首先。罗马在欧联杯和本地联赛的主场表现令人印象深刻。在最近的6场主场比赛中，他们有5场没有失球。在他的执教生涯中，穆里尼奥已经养成了一个习惯，那就是依靠大量的主场球迷来推动球员的表现，从而保持出色的主场战绩。主场优势对罗马来说是一个巨大的优势。

其次。罗马重新焕发活力的防守加上重新建立的进攻平衡使罗马现在成为一支危险的球队。在最近的三场意甲比赛中，他们一球未失，攻入7球。还要记住的是，他们在最近的8场主场比赛中有7场没有在主场丢球，而且赢了比赛。这再次强调了他们在主场是一支多么顽强的球队。

费耶诺德在意大利并没有特别好的战绩。罗马已经扭转了过去三场比赛首回合1球落后的局面。尤其是在主场，我已经掌握了不失球取胜的技巧，我希望罗马能在标准的90分钟比赛中获胜。
