AS Roma vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction 6 March 2025
Added on 04 March, 2025
One of the standout clashes in the Europa League Round of 16 will see Roma take on Atlético Madrid, two serious contenders for the title.
The Giallorossi have lost just twice in their last 15 matches, showcasing excellent form and determination. Most recently, they edged Como 2-1, while in the previous round of the competition, they overcame Porto in a hard-fought battle (1-1, 3-2).
Atlético currently sits fourth in La Liga and finished second in their Europa League group. In recent fixtures, Los Colchoneros recorded dominant wins over Girona (3-0) and Valladolid (7-1), drew with Betis (2-2) and Espanyol (1-1), but also suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat to Athletic Bilbao.
Both sides tend to perform strongly at home, giving Roma a slight edge in this first leg. The Italians will look to capitalize on their home advantage and put themselves in a favorable position ahead of the return fixture in Madrid.
