Preview:
Roma returned to winning ways in a hard fought 1-0 win over Juventus in the Serie A on Sunday night.
Mancini’s effort made all the difference as Roma picked up a 14th win of the season and entered the top 4 places in the table.
This was a top win for Mourinho’s men as his side gained confidence to solidify their place in the Serie A this season. AS Roma beat Salzburg in the Round of 32 stage 2-1 on aggregate to reach here.
On the other hand, Real Sociedad played out a goalless home draw vs Cadiz in their previous league clash on Saturday.

This left them in 4th place with 44 points having drawn 2 and lost 1 of their previous 3 matches.
In the UEL, Sociedad topped their group with 15 points from 6 matches and directly qualified for the RO 16.
They will be up against the tide here as they haven’t been in the best of forms recently.

Prediction: Roma 2-1 Sociedad
Roma have played well at home and start as favourites. They will be confident after a big win vs Juventus on the weekend. Roma can take control of a slightly inconsistent Sociedad side.
Sociedad’s recent struggles keep them on the backfoot, but we still see them playing well.
However, Roma should nick this by the odd goal.
Players to watch out for: Dybala, Cristante, Merino and Oyarzabal.
