Porto v Roma Betting Tips: Roma to produce another thriller?

Odds and preview of Champions League clash

Roma will hope to extend their slender 2-1 advantage and bag a crucial away goal against Porto in this last-sixteen second-leg.

The Italian side are coming off the back of a damaging derby defeat to Lazio – but do have previous in this competition.

Their run to the last four last season produced some dramatic moments. But Porto are also hoping to bounce back from a league defeat that shapes this one up to be a real intriguing battle.

Here we have all the key info and odds before it kicks off from 8:00pm on BT Sport 3.

Head-to-Head

This will be the sixth meeting between the pair in European competition. The last time they locked horns was in the Champions League qualification round in 2016.

After a 1-1 draw in Portugal, Porto would run out 3-0 winners in Rome to seal their passage to the group stage.

However, with Roma earning a 2-1 home win three weeks ago, Porto know they must run up a score to progress this time.

Likely XIs

Iker Casillas should line-up in goal for the home side, whilst Premier League transfer target Yacine Brahimi and team-mate Hector Herrera are likely to retain their places too.

Oliver Torres is an option for Dragoes, but the fire-power should come from Fernando and Francisco Soares up front.

Roma’s defensive colossus Kostas Manolas is struggling to be fit for this one, so boss Eusebio Di Francesco will have to shuffle his pack.
