Leverkusen seeks to extend its incredible season with a score in Rome that brings it closer to the Europa League final.
This Thursday, May 2, Roma and Bayer Leverkusen will play the first of two matches for the Europa League semifinals. Leverkusen fans are excited to see their team succeed in Europe while La Loba fans hope their team will return to play in the title match.
In the 2022/23 season, Roma reached the final of the Europa League, but the squad from the Italian capital lost the cup on penalties to Sevilla. In the current campaign, Daniele de Rossi, who took over from Jose Mourinho at the beginning of 2024, has regained the best version of Roma and made it clear by beating AC Milan in the quarterfinals by an aggregate score of 3-1.
