AS Roma
Last weekend, Roma achieved a long-awaited victory in the new season. In the opening games, the "Giallorossi" were unimpressive, dropping points even at home against less formidable opponents, but that didn't stop the team from demolishing Udinese, one of the leaders of the Italian Championship (3-0). Against Udinese, Roma looked like Barcelona in their prime, dominating every part of the field and could have won by an even larger score. It cannot be denied that the team was shaken by the dismissal of Daniele De Rossi and the appointment of Ivan Jurić as head coach, although there was plenty of dissatisfaction with this reshuffling. Regarding the upcoming clash, the Croatian specialist can rely on all players except Alexis Saelemaekers (ankle injury).

Athletic Bilbao
In the opening matches of the new season, Athletic showed quite acceptable results. After seven games, the "Basques" have collected 13 points and sit in third place – only Real Madrid and Barcelona are above them. Special attention should be given to the last three matches. Athletic not only won all of them but played extremely effectively (averaging 2.67 goals per game). However, the team is experiencing significant roster problems. Five players are out injured, and the participation of two goalkeepers is in doubt – Unai Simón sustained a wrist injury over the summer, and Julen Agirrezabala injured his face in the recent match against Celta Vigo.

Roma possible starting lineup:
Ryan; Mancini, Hermoso, Ndicka; Celik, Kone, Cristante, El Shaarawy; Soule, Baldanzi; Dovbyk

Athletic Bilbao possible starting lineup:
Agirrezabala; Gorosabel, Vivian, Paredes, Yuri; Ruiz de Galarreta, Vesga; I. Williams, Sancet, Berenguer; Guruzeta

Roma vs Athletic Bilbao Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
*The two teams are meeting for the first time.
*Roma are meeting a 10th different Spanish team in Bilbao in UEFA competitions.
*Bilbao have had 20 meetings across competitions with seven different Italian teams.
*Roma have won one of their five Serie A games this season, keeping three clean sheets.
*Roma have lost one of their last 12 home games in the Europa League, with that loss coming against last season's runners-up Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-final.
*Bilbao have lost their last three games in the Europa League. They have suffered one loss in their last seven away games in the competition.

Prediction: Roma 1-1 Athletic Bilbao
Now that Ivan Juric has taken the reins at Roma, the home side should be harder to beat, so Athletic Club's wait for a win on the Italian peninsula may go on. Both teams would probably settle for a point from one of their tougher league-phase contests, with much friendlier fixtures awaiting either side next month.
