Salernitana vs Roma – Preview, Prediction and Betting Tips 29/01/2024

Salernitana will have another tough mission this Monday, when they host the Roma team, trying to survive in the championship, to save themselves from falling to the second division.

They face the Roma team, whose mission is to win this round, to get closer to the top 6 in the Italian league.

Salernitana

The Salernitans are in last place in Italy’s first division, with just 12 points, and the team already has 6 less than Cagliari, who are first outside the zone.

In this way, it becomes increasingly difficult for the team to achieve its salvation, and the moment it is going through is very bad.

In 21 games, the team won only 2 times, with 6 draws and 13 defeats, 18 goals scored and 42 goals conceded.

Salernitana has the worst defensive performance in the league and currently comes with 3 consecutive defeats.

They lost every game they played in 2024, starting with a 2-1 home defeat to Juventus, and then by the same score they lost to Napoli, playing as a visitor.

Again, they were defeated by a score of 2-1, when they returned to play at home against Genoa.

The team still took advantage in the second minute of the game, with Martegani. But they suffered a draw with Retegui in the 13th minute of the first half and the turnaround through a penalty converted by Gudmundsson, at the beginning of the second half.

Salernitana was the propositive team in that match, reaching 60% of ball possession, but evidently they have not been able to convert this superiority into goals.

Playing at home, the team won only once in 11 games, with an average of 2 goals conceded in each match played at home.

Therefore, against the Roma team, which certainly has superior technical quality, the probability of the team conceding goals this Monday is very high.

Roma

Roma, in turn, appears in eighth place with 32 points and is chasing the group of the top 6 placed.

The team is just one below Lazio, sixth in the table, and they are already 4 below Atalanta, who closes the Champions League zone, in fourth place.

It is still possible to fight for a place in Europe’s biggest competition next season, but their irregularity since the beginning of their campaign has been evident.

There are 9 wins and 7 defeats so far, in addition to 5 draws, with 34 goals scored and 25 conceded.

In the last match, the team managed to break a sequence of 3 rounds without victories, when at home they beat Verona 2-1.

In fact, playing as a visitor is not a good thing for Roma, who have lost 6 of their 10 games and are coming off 3 consecutive defeats.

Still, it is expected that facing the worst team in the championship, which has only won once at home and which has the worst defense, the Roma team will be able to prevail. Therefore, their victory will be my betting choice.
