FC Kosice vs AS Roma Betting Tips: Roma Win / Over 2.5 Goals

Roma's pre-season campaign kicks off with a friendly against Slovakian side Kosice on Monday, and a high-scoring outcome seems likely. The Giallorossi have undergone something of a transformation under the stewardship of club legend Daniele De Rossi following the departure of Jose Mourinho earlier this year.

Since his appointment in March, De Rossi has instilled a more expansive and attacking style of play in Rome, and the results have been evident. Roma have seen over 2.5 goals scored in a eight of their last 11 matches. The Romans also saw at least three goals netted in seven of their last eight friendly matches played since 2022.

While this is only a friendly, and Roma are likely to rotate their squad, their attacking intent is unlikely to change. The Italians will be expected to dominate possession and create numerous chances against their likely overmatched Slovakian hosts. 

Roma's attacking resurgence under De Rossi, coupled with their status as overwhelming favourites, suggests a high-scoring away win is likely. 

I expect an entertaining encounter with Roma to emerge victorious in a game where we can expect at least three goals scored at Košická futbalová aréna.
