This was their 2nd successive win after a 0-0 draw against CSKA-Sofia in their previous ECL match.
The Norwegian side continue to dominate the league standings with 47 points from 22 matches.
In the ECL, the goalless draw meant Glimt dropped to 2nd in the Group C table with 4 points from 2 matches.
On the other hand, Roma has dropped their intensity in recent weeks after a top start to the season.
2 losses in their last 5 matches does not make for good reading and Jose will look to get back to winning ways.
Roma was beaten in their previous Serie A match against Juventus 1-0 but have done well in the Conference League.
The Italian side are top of Group C with 2 wins from 2 matches against CSKA-Sofia and Zorya.
Shaarawy, Smalling and Abraham were the scorers in their 3-0 win over Zorya on MD 2.
