The Giallorossi have been producing fine displays ever since Daniele De Rossi took over the reins and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Rasmus Kristensen limped off with an injury in the last league match, with Zeki Celik likely to step up, while Edoardo Bove is back from suspension.
The Seagulls, on the other hand, head into the match following a heavy 3-0 loss to Fulham. As the Romans have found their best form of late, we predict that Roberto De Zerbi’s men are going to return to England with their hands empty, so if you’re betting online you shouldn’t back them here.

Questions Of The Day
Who could score for Brighton against AS Roma?
With competition top scorer Joao Pedro unavailable, Brighton might be looking to fall back on the experience of another former Manchester United forward in Danny Welbeck, who has five UEL career goals, although the last came way back in October 2018.
Why back AS Roma against Brighton?
It’s hard to look past any result other than a home win here. As well as being unbeaten in their past five games across all competitions, Roma have also lost just one of their last 23 home games in the Europa League.
During that run, Roma have won 17 times with five draws. Since the 2-1 defeat to Real Betis in last season’s tournament, Roma have won eight of their last nine home games in the competition.
