Bayer Leverkusen and AS Roma will face battle in a decisive Europa League semi-final at the Bay Arena. Bayer Leverkusen, who recently won the Bundesliga and are unbeaten in all games this season, is looking for their first Europa League win in club history. Xabi Alonso’s side is undefeated in the 2023-24 Europa League.
Meanwhile, AS Roma lost the first leg at home by 2-0, and they are desperate to secure the second leg, but they will need all of their strength to stop Leverkusen, who appear to be a formidable opponent.

LEV vs ROM Predictions
The football fans are aware that it is difficult to wager against current Bayer Leverkusen at home, especially after they secured a 2-0 victory from the first leg away trip.
With a two-goal lead even before kick-off, the undefeated German first-tier squad is too formidable to be easily defeated at home. It seems Alonso’s squad will advance to the championship round.

LEV vs ROM Team Previews
Bayer Leverkusen Team Preview:
- Bayer Leverkusen scored two goals in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League semi-finals to lead the aggregate score, and the second leg was set at 2-0 in their favour.
- This season, Leverkusen has been the greatest team in all five of Europe’s top divisions, and they have already won the Bundesliga. A victory over Roma would bring them within striking reach of a historic undefeated treble something that no European team in history has ever accomplished.
- Victor Boniface, Jeremie Frimpong, and Florian Wirtz were rested for Leverkusen’s decisive victory over Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday. Everyone is supposed to come back here.
AS Roma Team Preview
- AS Roma will now play as the visiting team in today’s second leg at BayArena. Last season’s UEL runners-up will need to come up with something against the undefeated Bundesliga outfit.
- AS Roma has failed to defeat German football clubs in their past six European tournament appearances.
- Daniele de Rossi has returned the club to the fight for the top four in Italy, but reaching a third consecutive European final appears to be out of reach.

LEV vs ROM Players to watch
Bayer Leverkusen: The 21-year-old Florian Wirtz is nothing short of a genius. He, who opened the scoring in the previous game, should cause the Italians problems once more. In the 2023–24 UEL season, he has already tallied four goals and four assists.
AS Roma: Paulo Dybala is anticipated to take centre stage in this situation. He might be the player to swing the tie in his team’s favour because of his great experience. Even though Dybala has only scored two goals in this competition so far, it will clearly be worth more than many goals if he helps his team win this one.
