Manchester United v Roma Betting Tips
Selections suggested by our editorial team
Roma or draw
Roma or draw is our banker. Roma are unbeaten in five, while United have won none of their last five. Our model gives this a 77% chance, and Roma's away record of three wins and two draws without a defeat this season says the visitors are hard to beat on the road.
Over 2.5 goals
We want goals here. 70% of Roma's matches have gone over 2.5 goals, and they have scored 18 in their last five. United only hit that mark in 33% of theirs, but they have shipped 12 in five games, and our predicted 1-2 clears the line.
Roma to win
For a bigger price, take Roma outright. Our model makes Roma 57% to win against 23% for United, a 34-point gap. Roma score 2.8 goals a game to United's 1.11 and hit the target 6.3 times per match, so they turn pressure into goals far more reliably.

Manchester United and Roma Match Preview
The Champions League resumes with Manchester United hosting Roma at Old Trafford. Our soccer predictions will come as no surprise to United fans, as we fancy Roma winning 2-1. Our model gives Man Utd a 23% chance of winning in front of their home fans.
United enter this fixture in freefall. The Red Devils have lost four of their last five games, finding the back of the net twice and conceding 12. They have lost three on the bounce, including a brutal 3-0 thrashing by Bournemouth at home.
Roma arrives full of confidence and is unbeaten in five. They have notched 18 goals in that run, with high-scoring matches against Udinese, Cagliari, and Napoli. Across the season, they are averaging 2.8 goals per game and conceding 1. Compare that to United’s 1.11 and 1.67 let in, and you can see two completely different teams.
Anyone betting on the Champions League would be mad to back United. It’s only a matter of time before the manager merry-go-round continues and Michael Carrick is shown the door. It’s not a lack of effort at this point, with Manchester averaging the same number of shots per game as Roma, with 18 per match. Instead, it comes down to quality.
Roma’s games have gone over 2.5 goals in 70% of their matches. They have also gone over 3.5 goals 60% of the time. United’s games have been far poorer, with over 2.5 being a winning bet 33% of the time.
United’s injury worries only add to the problem, with Yoro out because of a suspension and Ugarte, Sesko, and Dorgu missing through injury. That leaves a team without impact players and quality. Even Bruno Fernandes, one of the best Manchester United players of all time, can’t single-handedly turn this season around. Betting on a 1-2 home defeat is almost generous, as it could be much worse.
Over/under betting could offer some salvation for the Red Devils; that way, fans won’t have to bet on their team losing. Instead, you could go for over 2.5 goals and pray Bryan Mbeumo has his shooting boots on for this match.
The Italian side has the edge on paper, but this is the Champions League. Many times in recent history, the underperforming side in the league has found something when playing in Europe. Carrick needs something this week to avoid another capitulation and hold off the board at least until the weekend. However, we feel this United side will roll over and lose 1-2 at the final whistle.
Manchester United v Roma Key Players
Season figures, 2026/2027.
Ever present with 810 minutes, Mbeumo has four of United's ten goals. With Sesko out, the scoring burden lands squarely on him.
Cunha leads United for assists with two and has one goal, but he needs to be sharper against a team this hot.
Eight goals in 575 minutes make Malen joint second in the scoring charts and responsible for 8 of Roma's 28 goals.
Soulé has three goals and three assists and has played all ten games. With Dybala missing, more creative work falls to him.
